Frequently Asked Questions (Strategy Designer)

Q: I cannot see Strategy Designer in the main menu. Why?
A: You probably do not have the StrategyDesigner business role assigned. If you have, please check the configuration options, maybe there is another business role specified that you need to have.

Q.: Strategy Designer gives me a ‘Not authorized’ error when I try to open it. What can I do?
A: Please check if the StrategyDesigner business role has all the needed permissions. You can find them here.

Q: Can I use Strategy Designer to modify other logics, such as Quotes or Rebates?
A: No, Strategy Designer works only in tandem with the Price Setting Package accelerator. No other use cases are supported at the moment.

Q: I have changed a data lookup but the change is not reflected in my strategy. Is that a bug?
A: You probably forgot to save the data lookup. You need to save it even when you rename it. Otherwise, the new name will not be reflected in your strategy.

Q: I have set up a range data lookup and want to change it. But the ‘Enable range lookup’ is disabled. Why?
A: If the lookup is already used in a strategy, you cannot change the range definition. You either need to delete the corresponding lookup block from your strategy, or create a new one by duplicating this one and saving it as a new data lookup.

Q: Where can I report bugs and suggest ideas?
A: We have a dedicated Jira project for this: PFVCFG (Pricefx Visual Configuration). When submitting a ticket, make sure to assign it to the Strategy Designer epic.
