Grace Period

Once a major release date has passed and the customer’s environment has been deemed to be non-compliant with the Pricefx N-1 policy, they will enter a Grace Period phase. During this 30-day period, immediately after a major release, the customer will be encouraged to present a plan for a timely upgrade of their environment to N-1 compliance.

These are the potential outcomes from the Grace Period:

  • No Upgrade Plan: if no upgrade plan is presented by the customer at the end of the Grace Period, then within 30 days of the expiration of the Grace Period the following will occur:

    • QA environment will be automatically upgraded to the N-1 compliant version (as the Pricefx support schedule allows it).

    • After QA upgrade, within 30 days, the PROD environment will be automatically upgraded to the N-1 compliant version (as Pricefx support schedule allows it).

  • Upgrade Plan Provided: if an upgrade plan is presented by the customer within the Grace Period, then the following will occur:

    • The upgrade plan will be reviewed by the Pricefx support team for timeliness and accuracy.

    • The customer will be provided with a selection of dates for scheduling the upgrade. If no date is selected, then the Pricefx support will determine the upgrade timing.

    • The upgrade will be performed on QA environment. 30 days later the PROD environment gets upgraded.

Grace Period during summer months will be longer than 30 days due to limited resources of the Pricefx DevOps team. Double check with Pricefx team for more details.
