Managing a Resource Rate Publication Status
If you distribute the same service plan in different countries controlled by different operating units, you can enable or disable one or more resource rates in this plan for a unit to make it available or unavailable for sale.
Note: To use this functionality for UX1 Marketplace you need UX1 Marketplace version 5.1 or later.
A resource rate is available for sale by default. To disable a resource rate's sale availability in a service plan delegated to an operating unit:
- Log in to CloudBlue Commerce as the operating unit.
- Go to Products > Service Plans and select the required service plan in the list.
- Switch to the Resource Rates tab and select the required resource rate in the list.
- Click Edit and deselect the Available for Sale checkbox.
This resource rate becomes unavailable everywhere that this service plan can be purchased by the operating unit (both panels and API).
Note:
1. The Available for Sale setting is propagated only during synchronization from the Provider or operating unit level to the Reseller level. This setting is not propagated from the Provider to the operating unit level.
2. To propagate the resource rate sale availability setting to a delegated service plan, you need to synchronize the plan. The Available for Sale setting behavior after the synchronization is the following:
- If the Available for Sale option is set to No and this is a new Resource Rate, then this Resource Rate is not delegated to resellers and not displayed in the resource rate list of the respective service plan in the Reseller Control Panel.
- If the Available for Sale option is set to Yes and this is a new, undelegated Resource Rate, then this Resource Rate is delegated to resellers and displayed in the resource rate list of the respective service plan in the Reseller Control Panel.
- If the Available for Sale option is changed from No to Yes for an existing Resource Rate that was delegated before, then the Available for Sale option becomes Yes for this resource rate in the Reseller Control Panel.
- If the Available for Sale option is changed from Yes to No for an existing Resource Rate that was delegated before, then the Available for Sale option becomes No for this resource rate in the Reseller Control Panel.
