New Features and Improvements
Description | ID |
|---|---|
The Optimization Engine image is now automatically enabled on the partition when you deploy the accelerator using PlatformManager. | PFPCS-6767 |
In the Results step on the Details tab, all Detail tables now contain the fields: Historical value, Current value, Optimized value and Value Δ for all the default values: Quantity, Revenue, Profit, and Margin%. | PFPCS-7254 |
Configuration for Optimization Engine jobs has been added to the accelerator so that it is handled during its deployment. | PFPCS-7392 |
The balance Revenue vs. Profit is a slider input from 0 to 10, and the intermediate values are better taken into account in the optimization computation. | PFPCS-7401 |
The elasticity function has been improved in order to have a closer to reality behavior. | PFPCS-7405 |
The latest version of Optimization Engine (v2) is now used in Price Waterfall Optimization accelerator. | PFPCS-7494 |
Default preferences for layout are now part of the accelerator release. | PFPCS-7607 |
Glassbox logic used to be part of the Price Waterfall Optimization accelerator. It is now packaged separately in the Optimization Common Library (OCL) - Glassbox Library and used as such within the accelerator. | PFPCS-7628 |
When installing the accelerator from PlatformManager, engines configuration steps are now the first steps of the accelerator installation. This is to prevent errors when trying to run a model while the accelerator installation has not been completed. | PFPCS-7703 |
There is a new tab Influencers to display the criteria impacted on a given value finder. | PFPCS-7911 |
Users can configure a maximum decrease and a maximum increase, in percent points, for specific adjustments, on-invoice and off-invoice discounts, and vendor rebates. | PFUN-18557 |
To improve consistency of the results, it is possible to reposition the outliers of the spot discounts. | PFUN-18562 |
It is possible to align the list prices based on a given dimension (typically: a brand). | PFUN-18564 |
The on-invoice discounts are split into: standard discounts (defined at a product group and customer group level), customer discounts (defined at a product group and customer level), spot discounts, and surcharges (defined at a product and customer level). | PFUN-18589 |
Fixed Issues
Description | ID |
|---|---|
When you create a new model, there is an unexpected timeout on the first step. | PFPCS-6765 |
Call to the elasticity model uses labels of the segmentation levels. | PFPCS-6975 |
In a specific case, the list prices are too far from their criteria bounds. | PFPCS-6980 |
If some elasticities do not exist, the optimization fails. | PFPCS-7551 |
There are wrong elasticities if the related Negotiation Guidance model is based on discount rates. | PFPCS-7795 |
There are too large oscillations during the optimization process. | PFUN-18666 |
Current values are not consistent. | PFUN-19265 |
There are missing option values in the evaluation tab user input. | PFUN-19851 |
Invoice prices become negative during the optimization. | PFUN-20990 |
