Then copy the entire html code opened in the html editor to the treatment, like below.
Inspecting the HTML to find a specific element that needs to be made dynamic.
E.g. make the first name dynamic i.e. let the data for first name come from the database table.
After the html code is pasted to PEGA treatment there is no further need of the html editor. It can be closed.
Now, open the HTML file in any web browser. For the purpose of this document, Chrome is used.
To find the html code for a particular area, right click that part and click Inspect.
E.g. as shown below, right click on the first name > Inspect. | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |
4b33d41bb239-0 | 348
The browser will then be split in to two windows as shown below. The bottom part will show the code.
In this way, code snippet for first name is located that will replaced by a Pega tag in the next step. | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |
2a4d4ea6dd70-0 | 349
Step 2: Make contents of the html dynamic
E.g.
Hello $(TG_FIRSTNAME),
$(TG_FIRSTNAME) is replaced by a pega tag as:
Hello
<pega:reference name=".OfferData.FirstName" format="DisplayAsLiteral"> </pega:reference>,
First name data comes from database table and mapped to the .FirstName attribute in a PEGA strategy like below.
Likewise, suppose the description for the offer in the email should come from PM Tool. In such a case, the description is held in one of the
variables in ‘Treatment to Treatment variation’ screen and mapped in the strategy as above.
Some more information on the .OfferData used in above example to get the first name
Sdf .OfferData is part of PegaMKT-Work-Offer class. Similar to offer data
1. PegaMKT-Data-Customer: Customer class to get the Subscription related data
2. PegaMKT-Work-Offer > .OfferData to get the Offer related data
3. PegaMKT-Work-Offer > .BundleOfferMembers to get child offer data | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |
84c58631dcd5-0 | 350
Using a Pega forEach rule
One scenario to refer .BundleOfferMembers inside a template is when the child offers have similar display structure (different data of
course) inside the email.
<%{int counter = 0;%>
<pega:forEach name=".BundleOfferMembers">
<pega:withEmbedded name="$this" >
<% counter++; %>
<% if(counter<=4){ %>
<img src="<pega:reference name=".OfferData.ImageURL" format="DisplayAsLiteral"></pega:reference>"
<pega:reference name=".OfferData.OfferHeader" format="DisplayAsLiteral"></pega:reference>/>
<pega:reference name=".OfferData.OfferDescription" format="DisplayAsLiteral"></pega:reference>
<pega:reference name=".OfferData.OfferPrice" format="DisplayAsLiteral"></pega:reference>
} %>
</pega:withEmbedded>
</pega:forEach>
<% } %>
Using a Pega When rule
Scenario to use a When rule:
E.g. a sentence in the email should be different based on customer’s data plan e.g. one version for limited plan and another version for
unlimited data plan.
In such a case, before displaying the sentence check customer’s data plan using a when rule like below:
<!-- Limited sentence -->
<pega:when name="CheckForLimitedDataPlan">
<pega:reference name=".OfferData.EmailCopy" format="DisplayAsLiteral"></pega:reference>
</pega:when>
<!-- Unlimited sentence -->
<pega:when name="CheckForUnlimitedDataPlanBatchNBA"> | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |
84c58631dcd5-1 | <!-- Unlimited sentence -->
<pega:when name="CheckForUnlimitedDataPlanBatchNBA">
<pega:reference name=".OfferData.EmailCopy1" format="DisplayAsLiteral"></pega:reference> | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |
937b055ab330-0 | 351
</pega:when>
EmailCopy has the copy for limited data plan.
EmailCopy1 has the copy for unlimited data plan.
A when rule is created in Pega via Records > Decision > When and looks like below:
Dynamic Variables
Like above, offer attributes e.g. offer header, image, description, price etc. can be made dynamic by using dynamic variables that are
present in PM Tool Treatment To Treatment Variations screen.
Step 3: Mapping dynamic variables
E.g for offer image below Pega tag is used in html. | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |
e065498da600-0 | 352
<img class="full-width" src="<pega:reference name=".OfferData.ImageURL" format="DisplayAsLiteral"></pega:reference>" width="247"
border="0"/>
In PM Tool, TreatmentDynamicVariable4 holds the image url.
So, TreatmentDynamicVariable4 is mapped to the ImageURL attribute inside a Pega strategy like below:
Strategy: PopulateOutputPropertiesForEmailByBatch
Currently, there are twenty dynamic variables provided in PM tool which means twenty offer attributes can be made dynamic.
Please note that there can be various other sources of data that is displayed in the email, not just PM Tool.
Data can come from Models, database tables etc.
Pega Decisioning logic takes care of retrieving the data and mapping it to the relevant offer attribute.
Once all the steps are completed, a Pega Marketing campaign is required to be created and should be in running state.
Batch NBA at its final stage triggers the campaign and email is sent.

Batch Testing : How-To
NBA Batch is a framework where all the decisions are made to multiple customers at a time.
There are 2 Cases involved in NBA Batch Framework:
1. Batch NBA Case
2. Extractor Case | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |

Batch NBA Case Testing : How-To
Introduction to Batch NBA Case
Checks before the Case execution
How to Trigger Batch NBA Case
Checks during/after the Case execution
Introduction to Batch NBA Case
There are 3 data flows involved in Batch NBA Case. They’re:
1. PrepareDataForBatchNBA : The PrepareDataForBAtchNBA Data flow reads the data from all the database tables ( Ex:
Subscription,account,Contact etc..) and prepares the data required for the decisioning logic, then writes the data to a data set
(SubscriptionDataForBatchNBA).
2. IdentifyCustomerIntents : The IdentifyCustomerIntents Data flow reads the data from SubscriptionDataForBatchNBA data set and
evaluate the Intents for each customer record and then writes the data(along with Intents) to SubscriptionDataForBatchNBA Data set.
3. IdentifyBestOBTreatmentsByBatch : The Data flow IdentifyBestOBTreatmentsByBatch reads the data from
SubscriptionDataForBatchNBA Data set and executes the decisioning logic ( and writes the output to BestOBTreatmentsByBatch Data
set.
Checks before the Case execution
1. To Trigger a new Batch NBA Case, check if the Previous Batch NBA Case Status is Resolved-Completed/Resolved-Cancelled.
1. Go to App Explorer and Search with V F U K - F W - A O M F W - W o r k - B a t c h N B A class name, click on the
class record as shown below. It will open all instances of the class. (Here Instances = Case work Items).
2. Open the latest work item /Case. (If required, Sort work Items based on 'Updated on' date). | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |
ad6829bab8b2-0 | 355
3. If the status is not Resolved-Competed,Then Update it to become Resolved-Completed.
Go To Actions → Change Stage → Select End stage → End/Abort .
2. Check Batch NBA Case configurations: We can see the Batch NBA Case configurations here.
Case ID : ID of the Current Running case/ Previous Case.
Case Status : Status of the Current case/ Previous Case. If the case is running the Status changes to Running or if the case is failed to run,
then status changes to Pending-Investigation.
Case Dependencies: If the dependent Case configured in the Case dependency field is running,Then the Batch NBA case will not start
until the Dependent case is completed.
3. Check if the previous Email and SMS Campaign runs were successful:
If there is a failure in previous Email and SMS Campaign runs,Then that should be resolved before triggering the next Batch NBA case. To
verify the Campaign Status:
Switch to Pega Marketing Portal → Campaigns → Open Email Campaign/SMS Campaign → Go to
Go To Data explorer → AOM Config Data Type → Search for Batch NBA . | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |
e2126067c973-0 | 356
Run Schedule Section → Verify the status of latest run.
How to Trigger Batch NBA Case
Generally ,In production environment, there is a Scheduler configuration to run the cases daily at particular time and these checks are
typically done by L2Support Team whereas in development environments, we trigger the Cases manually and do the checks manually. We
use an activity rule to trigger the Case. when we run this custom activity, it will internally run the case. Below are the steps to trigger the
case using an activity rule .(Activity : CaseIgnitor)
1. Go to application.
2. Search for the CaseIgnitor activity and open the activity from VFUK-FW-AOMFW-Work-BatchNBA class.

Introduction to Batch Extractor
The Extractor Case is common across all other functionalities.(Ex:T2S,MVP,Batch). We differentiate the Extractor based on the Input
Parameter i:e (Extractor Type). The below Data flows are involved in Batch Extractor Case.
1. PrepareForOBProcessForBatch : It reads the data from BestOBTreatmentsByBatch(Output of Batch NBA Case) and writes to a
BestOBTreatmentsBeforeDedupe data set.
2. PopulateMasterDataSets : It reads the data from BestOBTreatmentsBeforeDedupe data set and writes to 3 different destinations.
1. ContactDetailMaster data set.
2. PopulateTreatmentsForOB data flow : It executes the volume constraints strategy and populates
volume limit for each treatment and writes to TreatmentsForOB Data set,which is used by Volume
constraints activity.
3. PopulateOffersBySubChannelForOB Data-flow : It populates Sub channels for each Treatment
using PopulateSubChannelBasedOffers Strategy and writes
OB CC treatments to OffersBySubChannelForOutboundCC Data set and
DM treatments to OffersBySubChannelForDirectMail data set.
3. DedupeByContactDetail : It reads the data from ContactDetailMaster data set and
BestOBTreatmentsBeforeDedupe data sets, and executes De-dupe the customer based on
Contact Details and writes the output to BestOBTreatmentsAfterDedupe | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |
7060b87431af-1 | Contact Details and writes the output to BestOBTreatmentsAfterDedupe

IVR - How To
O v e r v i e w
IVR channel is integrated with AOM through GetNBA data flow to generate an eligible offer and related routing option for customers
interacting with IVR. | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |
0514d72a3c26-0 | 375
IVR Subchannels and Respective Request Structure/Data
XXXXXXXXXXThere are two subchannels for IVR channel:
1- PreNLCS: This flow runs initially when the customer first interacts with IVR, so at this point, there isn’t any stated purpose yet and intent
is identified based on the rules using past interactions of the customer.
Request Parameters:
- SubChannel = “PreNLCS”.
- Service number is required.
- Primary context is always empty.
Sample Request:
2- PostNLCS: This flow runs when the customer stated a purpose (e.g. problem-sim) on IVR. So their intent is identified based on this
purpose which is also named apptag.
Request Parameters:
- SubChannel = “PostNLCS”.
- Service number is required.
- Primary context (apptag) is required.

Configuring Apptag Data
When a customer states a purpose on the IVR, this purpose is converted into an apptag. Each apptag has its own specific configurations
(Event Parameters) that are stored in AOMBusinessData data type. This configuration data is used to populate tokens that are used to
generate service request parameters and SMS content further in the flow. These apptag parameters are listed in the table below and for a
new apptag, they should be configured on the PM Tool.
Configuring a New Apptag in PM Tool
To configure the apptag parameters refer to steps under Business Config heading in Other Screens page. Apptag Number ID of the apptag in IVR sytem
Default Routing Option Shows which routing option is the default. (IVR Treatment Code)

Identify Intent for Each Subchannel
Intents are identified based on customer events coming from different sources. These events are mapped to intents according to the
mapping in EventToIntent decision data. This mapping is used in the strategies to identify customer intents and calculate intent’s confidence
score. EventDataSource column shows the source of the related event.
Configuring EventToIntent Mapping
Step 1: When a new apptag is added, it should be mapped to its related intent too. If the new apptag is mapped to a new intent, first the
intent should be created and mapped to an offer and business purposes if required. To configure the intents refer to steps in intent related
screens page.
Step 2: Map the new apptag to the related intent. To configure event to intent mapping for apptags and Tealium events refer to steps in
Event page.
Identifying Intents
Intents are identified in two different ways:
1. Based on the rules (EventDataSource = IH/Tealium/EventStore).
2. Based on the call context (EventDataSource = Context).
The resulting intents are populated into the CustomerIntentList property and offers are identified based on these intents through the
GetNBA funnel.
Data Flow: IdentifyCustomerIntentsRealTime
Strategy: EvaluateCustomerIntents
1- Identifying Intents for PreNLCS SubChannel (Rule Based Approach)
Since PreNLCS doesn’t have a primary context, intents for PreNLCS are identified based on the rules using past events, interactions,
webpage visits of the customer that occurred in the last X hours. X is defined on the EventRecency property of EventToIntent DD and the
confidence score of the intent will decrease gradually depending on this value and the time passed over the interaction. | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |
27003700aa87-1 | confidence score of the intent will decrease gradually depending on this value and the time passed over the interaction.
There are three groups of this approach according to event source:
EventStore: (EventDataSource = EventStore)
Strategy: ValidateIntentsWithEvents | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |
846602444dd6-0 | 379
Interaction History: All communications with the customer including offers sent and customer responses are stored in the interaction
history. (EventDataSource = IH)
Strategy: ValidateIntentsWithIH
Tealium: Customer’s website page visits are stored as events. (EventDataSource = Tealium)
Strategy: ValidateIntentsWithTealium
Strategy: IdentifyRecentEventBasedIntents
2- Identifying Intents for PostNLCS (Real Time Event Based Approach)
Intents for PostNLCS are identified based on the call context. The apptag (primary context) stated by the customer (e.g. problem-sim) is
used to identify the intent (e.g. Help-Device) based on the mapping in EventToIntent DD (EventDataSource = Context)
Strategy: IdentifyRTEventBasedIntents
If the apptag is not configured in the EventToIntent mapping, the strategy will generate "Primary context not Configured" error message. | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |
24685f984acd-0 | 380
Configuring Offers
Standard NBA funnel step is executed to identify eligible offers for IVR.
For PostNLCS there is only a single offer:
If an existing offer is required to used for PreNLCS, its Execution Mode can be updated to include GetNBA. PreNLCS Offers:

Identify Offer/Business Purpose for a Given Intent
If there is an intent generated based on an apptag (stated intent), offers will only be identified based on this intent, and rule based intents
(inferred intent) will be omitted.
There are two ways to identify offers depending on the confidence score range of the intent:
If the confidence score range is high, offers are generated using the mapping in IntentToOffer decision data.
If the confidence score range is low, instead of offers, firstly business purpose is identified using the mapping in
IntentToBusinessPurpose decision data, then offers under this business purpose are generated.
The confidence score of the intent should be greater than or equal to 1 to be considered as an intent to generate offers from. Otherwise, the
intent will be discarded.

Configuring Offer Variants
A new offer variant should be created if
A new SMS message template is needed for a specific apptag (Only for PostNLCS).

Configuring Routing Options (Treatment Variants)
Treatment Variants
IVR routing options are defined as treatment variants.
IVR Treatment Code is the routing option code on the IVR and it should be configured for PostNLCS treatment variations.
Configuring Treatment Variants in PM Tool
If a new routing option is required, a new treatment variation should be created. To create a new treatment variant, refer to steps under
Treatment Variation heading in Treatment Variation page.
Treatment To Treatment Variations (TTV)
For IVR, the rank attribute on TTV is used to identify the best treatment variation for each treatment and it should be configured.
Eligibility rules can be defined for a TTV if it’s required.
For SMS treatments, SMS templates should be configured on T2TV. Dynamic parameters that are written between [] are populated by
using apptag parameters. (Refer to IVR -SMS and Populating SMS Data Tokens Using Apptag Data). | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |
840ab183b18f-0 | 384
If a new SMS template is required, a new offer variant should be created.
Configuring Treatment To Treatment Variants in PM Tool
A new T2TV should be created if a new offer variant or a new treatment variant is created. To create a new T2TV, refer to steps under
Treatment To Treatment Variations (TTV) heading in Treatment Variation page.
Output Properties Mapping (T2TV Actions and T2TV Attributes)
After the treatment variant is identified through the flow, parameters of the request (AOM Interface Spec - GetNBA) that will be sent to the
IVR, are populated according to the templates defined in T2TVAttributes and T2TVActions decision data.
Strategy: PopulateOutputPropertiesForGetNBA
T2TV Actions
Actions part of the service request defines what should be the action to take and generated based on the ActionDetail attribute of
T2TVActions decision data. For the example below, RecommendedRouting and DeflectionType are Action Attributes. If a new Action
Attribute is required, it should be configured on the PM Tool.
ActionList.Actions section of the response:
Configuring T2TV Actions in PM Tool
When a new T2TV is defined, TT2V Actions should be configured. To configure T2TV Actions, refer to steps under T2TV Actions heading in

T2TV Attributes
Details part of the request defines the details of the action and generated based on the configuration in the TemplateDetails attribute of
T2TVAttributes decision data.
As a first step, values for dynamic parameters written between “[]” are populated:
- MessageId is the id of the message on IVR that the customer will be deflected. It’s a combination of Apptag number and IVR Treatment
Code (MessageID = "1"+ Apptag Number + IVR Treatment Code).
- AppTag parameter is populated with the apptag value that the customer stated.
- Reason parameter shows the reason for the deflection.
(Strategy: PopulateTokenValuesforApptag)
Then parameters replaced with these values (Strategy: SetIVRTokens).

Identifying Routing Option (Treatment Variants)
Standard NBA funnel step is executed to identify eligible treatment variants.
For IVR - PostNLCS, to decide routing on Agent vs Tobi /Webchat / Online additional validations are applied.
Also to arbitrate between Tobi /Webchat / Online, IVR Routing BDC model or Apptag configuration is used.
Strategy: ApplyAdditionalTreatmentVariationValidations
Validating through IH and Tealium Interactions
It’s checked if the customer has any previous routing or Tealium interactions and if the rules below are met, the customer is routed to an
agent:
Strategy: IHandTealiumValidation
Validating through BDC Model
If the customer does not have any previous routing or Tealium interactions, IVR Model is queried to find if there is a recommended routing
for the subscription, and treatment variation is selected based on this value (IVR Treatment Code). If a recommended routing is not
available for the customer, default routing option is applied according to Apptag configuration.

Validating Routing Recommendation
Some IVR routing options might have been disabled. In this case, these routing options are provided in the detail section of the service
request generated by IVR as “Disabled”. If recommended routing for treatment variant is one of these disabled routing options, it will be
discarded.

IVR -SMS and Populating SMS Data Tokens Using Apptag Data
For Post NLCS, if the routing option is one of Tobi, Webchat, and Online, an additional SMS notification including the details of the call and
related URL is sent to the customer as well.
SMS template samples:
Content of the SMS message is generated dynamically using related apptag parameters (refer to Configuring Apptag Data). As a first step,
these data tokens are populated by using AOMBusinessConfig data. For the example below [TobiURL] and [CallReason] are used to
generate the SMS message.
Strategy: PopulateEventParameters
Then dynamic values in the SMS template (TreatmentDynamicVariable1) are replaced with these respective values to generate the final
SMS text.
Hello. Thanks for your call today. Head to [TobiURL] to [CallReason]. | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |

Get Recommendation API
Get Recommendation API call returns the top Recommendations for the customer in the context as part of the upgrade journey.
Pre-requisites
Most of the subscription/customer data is already populated by GetCustomer API call, before making get recommendations call barring a
few, which are added/composed in:
Data Flow: PrepareDataForGetRecommendation.
For watch subscriptions, PrimarySubscription attribute will be populated with the subscription data which is the primary subscription of the
watch subscription. To identify the primary subscription, PrimarySubscriptionId attribute will be used.
Customer intent is also evaluated by calling:
Data flow: IdentifyCustomerIntentsForGetRecommendation.
GetCustomer api call populates Data Set: SubscriptionXCAR. So the customer must be present in this data set for a successful
GetRecommendations API call.
Data coming from BDC Model is present in below two data sets, both added to Subscription data in .BDCRecommendationList in Data
flow: PrepareDataForGetRecommendation.
1. UniversalTariffRecommendation
2. DeviceRecommendation
Above data sets are populated by BDC Loader.

Get Device List
Returns list of device(s). i) Handsets OR ii) Watches
Strategy: GetDeviceList
The main data page to get tariff data is: D_SellablePayMHandsets that gets data mainly from database view: pc_paym_handset_v and
few other views. DeviceType parameter of the datapage is set as ”Handset” or “Watch” depending on the upgrading subscription type.
Before returning the device list as response, logic needs to check if the top 5 devices have available stock. This is done by calling strategy:
GetStockDetails that calls Data Page: D_GetStockAvailability.

Get Tariff List
Returns list of tariff(s) for a watch/non-watch CTN.
Strategy: GetTariffList
The main data page to get tariff data is: D_EligibleTariffsForDept that gets data from database view: pc_eligible_tariffs_dept_v.
For watch subscriptions, GetWatchTariffList sub-strategy will be called which is also used by Get Recommendation Logic.
To calculate maximum discount for a tariff, call is made to sub-strategy: CalculateMaxDiscountForTariff, that uses the Data page:
D_DiscountsForTariff to get data from database view: pc_discounts_tariff_v.
Due to performance concerns count of tariff to calculate “Max Discount” needs to be configurable. To achieve this, a configurable value is
present in AOM Business Config that is retrieved in the logic as: | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |

Fix or Flex
What is Fix or Flex?
Business wants the ability to configure Tariff, Devices as fixed.
If deal contains any “Fixed” product:
- No additional discount will be recommended (exception is promotional discounts)
- Toolkit discounts cannot be added in edit deal journey
How to make a Tariff of Device Fixed?
At product level it is done via PM Tool via attribute: .IsFixed = True or False.
This data from PM Tool is pushed to .ProductAttributes DB table and in relevant data page import > Properties mapping, value is received in
strategy.
For example:
Strategy: G e t R e c o m m e n d e d D e v i c e
Data pages: D_SellablePaymHandsetBySKU and D_SellablePaymHandsets
.RecommendedDeviceIsFixed = @if(@String.equalsIgnoreCase(.ProductAttributes(IsFixed),"True"),true,false)
Strategy: GetListofActiveTariffs
Data page: D_EligibleTariffsForDept
.RecommendedTariffIsFixed = @if(@String.equalsIgnoreCase(.ProductAttributes(IsFixed),"True"),true,false)
There are few other strategies related to tariff and device, where above attributes are retrieved as required, via relevant data import. More
details are present in the design document.
Also global level configurations will enable or disable fix flow via DD: GlobalFixedProductConfiguration in Strategy:
GetGlobalFixedProductConfiguration.
This strategy will determine the value of an attribute .IsFixedEnabled.
So, till now we have values for the 3 required attributes in the tariff/device strategies:
.RecommendedDeviceIsFixed, .RecommendedTariffIsFixed, .IsFixedEnabled
And, final values based on the above are: | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |
3e91bfa58198-1 | And, final values based on the above are:
.RecommendedDeviceIsFixed = true if .RecommendedDeviceIsFixed = true && .IsFixedEnabled = true
.RecommendedTariffIsFixed = true if .RecommendedTariffIsFixed = true && .IsFixedEnabled = true
Configuring Decision Data: GlobalFixedProductConfiguration | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |
ec8c2e4a581e-0 | 419
The 3 main attributes of the DD are:
- FixedProductEnabledChannel
- FixedProductEnabledTeam
- FixedProductEnabledOrderTypes
And the unique key is combination of FixedProductEnabledChannel and FixedProductEnabledOrderTypes.
Values in the DD are compared with values of .Channel, .Team and .OrderType. If the values match or the value in DD for an attribute is
‘ALL’, the device of tariff is marked fixed i.e. .IsFixedEnabled = true.

Extractor Failure Scenario when Batch is Triggered
As part of the R2.8 ADO: 370027 Revalidation for Batch is introduced.
Whenever extractor run is failed due to some reason for batch and if the Email and SMS has been sent to few eligible customers. After
rectifying the extractor issue and re-running the extractor again will avoid sending Email and SMS to the customers who already been
received Email/SMS on that specific Extractor failed day with this new feature introduced as part of R2.8.
So, for the other channels apart from Email and SMS, current extractor case logic handles the failure scenario like deleting failed extractor
case records from the IH and removing files generated .
For example, if the Treatments got eligible for OBCC Channel and written to IH for few customers and in between due to some reason
extractor is failed. Then after rectifying the extractor case issue and re-run of the extractor removes previously entered records in IH. And
inserts again records in the IH for the eligible customers in IH and creates new files for that.
But, when extractor failed after Email/SMS is sent to the few customers. With the current Revalidation for the batch simply
Reconfigure(Suspend and re-submit) the Campaign and run the Campaign again. This makes sure that Email/SMS is not sent twice on that
day after the extractor issue is sorted out.
Important Notes: In the data type AOMBusinessConfig, number of days is defined that how many days contention should be applied for
Email and SMS channels. By Default it is 0(It means on the same extractor failure day, if issue is resolved and re-ran then Email/SMS will
be not sent who already received on that day.) | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |
00d35b5ef1d4-1 | be not sent who already received on that day.)
If the extractor is failing today and the issue is resolved on the following day, then the values should be modified to 1 before the extractor
run(so it avoids Email/SMS will be not sent who already received on the extractor failure day)
Similarly, modify the value in the data type accordingly( Value should be the number of days between Extractor Failed Day and Extractor
Resolved Day(Note: Re-running the extractor on the day it is resolved))

OPTI KT: Second Line Digital Private Pricing
Objective
Digital platform calls AOM’s 2nd line private pricing functionality via API calls, to get a list of prioritised tariff plans, associated percentage
discounts along with associated offers for a customer with an existing primary line product.
This functionality is a part of existing APIs: GetNBA and GetProductList.
Business Purpose = CrossSell
Currently implemented only for CrossSell but has the scope to be extended to other business purposes.
Channel in the API request = Web
OrderType in the API request = In Life Sales
This is passed in Get Product List API request to identify that the request is related to a 2nd line journey.
For GetNBA, it is hard coded as ‘In Life Sales’ in the logic.
Test Cell Management is new in 2nd Line PP, that is described in a separate section in the later part of this documentation.
GetNBA API:
2nd Line PP is called in the GetNBA logic flow only for Offers for below Configuration
@String.contains(.OfferCategory,"ADDITIONAL LINE") && @String.equalsIgnoreCase(.Channel,"Web") &&
@String.contains(.ProductGroup ,"Mobile")
GetNBA request can either come from the 'Upgrades & Offers' page or the 'Options to Buy (OTB)' popup on the Digital platform.
Logic distinguishes between these two sub-channels and determines which offers, treatment and templates to use.
So SubChannel under the Web channel are:
'Purchase' - for 'Options to Buy (OTB)' popup
'UpgradesAndOffers' - for 'Upgrades & Offers' page

Error Scenarios
When the APIs are called, if the MSISDN is not recognised by AOM then an error should be returned.
Likewise, if the supplied SKU is not recognised against any non-SIMO plan, then an error should be returned. | VODKB-200723-160306.pdf |
