Switching Price Manager On and Off for Specific Scenarios

When Price Manager is in proxy mode, you can enable or disable it for specific scenarios in CloudBlue. This can be done by a specific property in the component providing that scenario. Below you can find the list of scenarios that Price Manager currently supports with the information about the component providing that scenario.

Important: Switching to production mode is a permanent change that cannot be reverted. In production mode, Price Manager cannot be disabled for specific scenarios and ensures all the price management.

BSS scenarios

  • Placing a sales, change, cancellation, migration orders, and running the daily billing process. Provided by BSS.

  • Synchronizing subscriptions with plans.

  • Getting deals for a plan period using the getDealsForPlans operation.

  • Processing subscriptions whose billing is performed using classic rating.

  • Obtaining SKUs from the catalog.

To enable these scenarios, add the FEA_PriceManager billing feature in the components.bss.features section of the config.yaml file. To learn more on how to enable or disable BSS features, refer to this section.

Rating Engine scenario

  • Calculation of charges.

To enable or disable this scenario, update the Rating Engine configuration, by setting the prmintegrationenabled component parameter in the components.ratingengine-backend section of the config.yaml to true if you need to enable it, or false to disable it. For more information, refer to this section.

Scenarios depending on both Rating Engine and BSS

  • Transferring subscriptions and accounts.

  • Managing Adobe subscriptions with 3-year-commit discount and consumables products.

To enable these scenarios, enable Price Manager for both Rating Engine and BSS:
