Configurations

Customer Admins can use configurations to make run-time changes to the behavior of DecaSIM. Configurations can be divided into two broad groups:

• Customizable Configurations.
• System Configurations.

Customizable Configurations

These configurations are intended to be changed at run-time as the customer enhances, uploads more data, and customizes their own DecaSIM account. These configurations include:

• Excel Import configurations: These configs tell DecaSIM what information to extract from a spreadsheet - whether it is data in a structured table or in a more complex representation.
• Design Append configurations: These configs tell DecaSIM what pricing, promotion and design information to append to a Design File.

These configurations comprise both Two Parameter and Three Parameter configurations.

System Configurations

These are one configurations that connect DecaSIM with a customer's file content and data structure. These one-time configurations include:

• Price File Mapping*: DecaSIM needs to map between customer field names for Regular Price, Price Zone and Item Code and its internal names for these fields.
• Promo File Mapping*: As with regular price field names, DecaSIM needs to identify customer-specific fields for Discount Price, Brand Family and Promotion Key so it can map them to internal names.
• Product File Mapping*: These configurations map between customer labels and DecaSIM product metadata field names.
• Template File Mapping*: Templates are used to specify the base layouts for a catalog or circular.
• S3 Configurations: Provide Secret Key / Access Key for S3 Buckets. Files can be imported from SFTP folders or S3 buckets or Uploaded via the browser.
• SFTP Configurations: Create SFTP locations along with access credentials.

The configurations denoted with an * are used to detect what file type is being uploaded into DecaSIM. A single file that contains the minimum required fields found in Promo File and Price File can be used to update both.
