Validating the configuration

When onboarding new offers, it is possible to check if the pricing plan and configuration form is set up correctly before saving and publishing the offer.

As a final step, just fill in the form with the configuration you want to test and then select "Test-buy". The exact prices or configuration error messages will be exhibited identically to what the customer will see on the platform.

Selecting the Preview button:

a. After pressing the “Test-buy” button it shows errors for all fields which are wrong. If there are no validation errors, the following message pops up: "The selected configuration is valid. Customers will be able to buy this offer." 

b. After pressing the button "Reset" UI will reset all fields to default values.

Summary

This article explains how Vendors can validate their Offer configurations before publishing them to Customers. The validation process allows Vendors to test pricing plans and configuration forms by using the "Test-buy" feature, which displays exact prices and error messages as they would appear to Customers on the Platform. The "Reset" button enables Vendors to restore all fields to default values for retesting. This testing functionality ensures that Offers are configured correctly before they become available for purchase.
