Deploy to Partition (Strategy Designer)
Once you are satisfied with the strategies and their prioritization, you can deploy everything to the partition by clicking the Deploy button. A confirmation dialog will appear and after confirming, you will be taken to the Deploy screen which will give you information about the deployment progress.
If no error was encountered, you will be presented with the success message and a button that will take you back to the first step while reloading all the data from the freshly updated partition.
If an error was encountered, it means the deployment was unsuccessful. This can happen mainly because of a wrong configuration of the Price Setting Accelerator. In case you encounter an error, write down the error message and send it to the support team.
Draft and Deployed Configuration
There are two kinds of configuration stored on the partition, the deployed one and the draft. When you open Strategy Designer, first it will look for a draft version available on the partition. If there is one, it will be loaded. If not, the last deployed configuration (if present) will be loaded.
You can always discard the draft and load the last deployed configuration from the partition. This is done from the three-dot menu in the top-right corner.
Each time you make a change to the configuration (list of strategies, lookups, blocks), it is automatically saved to the partition as a draft. There is one draft per user, which means that each user can have their own work-in-progress version of the strategies. You can see the status of your configuration in the status bar in the app’s header.
There is, however, just one deployed configuration stored on the partition. This means that whenever a user deploys their draft to the partition, it will overwrite the previous version of the deployed configuration. And this new configuration will be then available to the other users, who will be able to load it (either by discarding their draft or automatically, if the user did not have any draft).
Until you deploy your configuration, you are playing in your own playground. When you deploy the configuration, it will become visible and active for PSP and available to other users of Strategy Designer, who would be able to load it.
