Common accelerator installation steps are described at How to Deploy Accelerator Package page. This article focuses only on the steps specific for Price Setting Accelerator.

This article is based on the version 2.0.2, but it is probable that the installation process for newer releases will be similar.

To install Price Setting Package:

  1. Access PlatformManager at https://platform.pricefx.com/ and log in.

  2. Go to Marketplace and find the Price Setting package.

  3. Click the package tile, select the partition where you want to deploy the accelerator package and confirm the deployment dialog to start.
    For detailed description of all deployment options, see PlatformManager documentation.

  4. The installer will start with deploy logics to your partition. This can take up to several minutes.

  5. Configure Product Segmentation.

This step is optional and can be skipped. The Product Segmentation can be configured later using the Price Setting Accelerator Configuration Wizard (Company Processes > Configuration Wizards) within the Core Elements module.

  1. Set up the default Product Segmentation. This list of attributes depends on the business needs and was decided in the pre-installation steps. The attributes must be provided in the order from highest to the lowest level of the product attributes hierarchy.
    Note: These attributes come from the attributes found in the Product Master. An example of attributes could be Industry > Business Unit > Product Group. This setting directly impacts the structure of tables created during the installation process. Later re-configuration will require a set of manual steps.

    1. When done, click Continue.

    2. Wait for the process to complete.

    3. Optionally, configure the Product Segmentation individually for a feature.

    4. When done, click Continue.

  2. The finalization of the process takes up to several minutes.

    • It deploys the predefined static logic, triggers the logic in Pricefx, etc.

    • The system automatically triggers a “package bootstrapping” process. It takes all the information that you provided in previous steps and creates and sets up all the required tables. The background process is described in detail in Configuration of Bootstrapping.

  3. Once finished, you will see the congratulations message.
