Standalone selling price

Set up Standalone Selling Price (SSP) in Recurly RevRec, configure the SSP Analyzer for data upload or automated analysis, and prepare and approve SSP data.

Setting up Standalone Selling Price (SSP) is a three-step process: create the SSP by defining values, pricing attributes, and any adjustments or discounts; set up SSP Analyzer rules to identify and analyze SSP variances; then prepare and upload your data for processing. Follow these steps and you'll have a robust SSP framework tailored to your products or services.
Available as part of Recurly RevRec

Configuring the SSP Analyzer for data upload

On the SSP Analyzer page, select the "+" icon to create a new SSP Analyzer.

3

Name the analyzer

Provide a unique name for the SSP Analyzer.

4

Select the analyzer type

Select Rules as the Analyzer Type if you're uploading SSP data.

5

Set the active dates

Define the active dates for the SSP data, including a start date and, if applicable, an end date.

6

Save

Once you've configured the SSP Analyzer, select the Save icon.

After you save, the Flow Status displays as "New."

Preparing and uploading SSP data

1

Confirm your data matches

Make sure the information in your table matches the selections you made for the SSP configuration, including the value type (amount or percentage).

2

Upload the file

Select the Upload icon, choose the SSP file you want to upload in the SSP upload window, then select Open.

3

Save

Once the SSP file is uploaded, select the Save icon. The uploaded data appears under the Rules section in SSP Analyzer.

4

Approve the data

Select the Approve icon to approve the uploaded SSP data. The Flow Status changes to Approved once approval is complete.

5

Download the data (optional)

Once your SSP data is approved, you can select the Download icon to download it.

WarningYou can only delete SSP data before it's approved — select the Delete icon to remove it. Once approved, the data can't be deleted. If approved data won't be used going forward, specify an end date so it stops being used beyond that date. Recurly RevRec lets you set validity for uploaded SSP data by specifying start and end dates for the approved data.

SSP analysis by the system

If you select Analysis as the Analyzer Type for the SSP Analyzer, the system collects data automatically based on your configuration, rather than requiring a manual data upload.

1

Open SSP Analyzer

Navigate to the Rules section and select SSP Analyzer, or select SSP Analyzer at the top of the SSP page. If you have multiple SSP definitions, go to the SSP card you need and select SSP Analyzer from there.

2

Start a new SSP Analyzer

Select the "+" icon to create a new SSP Analyzer.

Name the analyzer

Provide a unique name for the SSP Analyzer.

4

Select the analyzer type

Select Analysis as the Analyzer Type.

Set the active dates

Define the active dates for the SSP data, including a start date and, if applicable, an end date.

NoteFields like range, type, stats, value, and base appear as configured when you set up the SSP — you can't change them here.
6

Add criteria

Add the criteria that defines the data to include when deriving SSP values — for example, a book date greater than a certain threshold.

7

Run the analysis

Select the analysis icon. The system collects all data matching your criteria and returns the SSP breakup based on your grouping.

If your SSP grouping is "Item," the collected data is spread into different rows based on that grouping — completing the data collection process.

8

Approve the SSP to put it into use.
