Action Screen (Agents)

The Action screen displays the full detail of a single Action, including its assignment, context, detected items from a Pricefx Agent, any follow‑up Action Tasks, and (for Agents) the embedded Agent Action Review dashboard, so that users can understand and execute the work generated by Agents or other sources.

Action Header

The header at the top of the Action screen shows key identifiers and assignment fields.

  • Summary – Editable title of the Action used in lists, searches, and notifications.

  • Status – Current state of the Action. Possible values are:

    • Open – Initial status for newly created Actions.

    • Done – Action has been completed. Action can no longer be edited or deleted.

    • Blocked – There is an outstanding issue preventing completion.

    • Rejected – The assignee decided not to execute the Action. Action cannot be edited.

    • Postponed – The user decided to work on the Action later.
      info For more information see Action Status.

  • Type – The Action Type that defines available tabs, inputs, and outputs for the Action (for example, a generic Action type or an Agents Action template).
    info For more information see Action Types.

  • Assigned To – User responsible for completing the Action.

  • Due Date – Target completion date. Overdue Open Actions are highlighted visually in lists (exclamation icon and red date).

  • Model Object (Agents) – For Actions created by a Pricefx Agent, links the Action back to the originating Agent configuration and run, providing traceability between detected items and the model that generated them.

Context Fields

Context fields available on the Action (in header or details) describe where and why the Action was created.

  • Agents / Parent – Identify the parent document (for example Agent, Quote, Agreement, or custom object) and the specific tab where the Action was created, if applicable.

  • Originator – Identify the object (for example a Watcher, dashboard, or chart) that originally created the Action.

Description

Main work area for the assignee. Shows summary information in the side panel and the Action description and content defined by the Action Type in the main panel.

For the Agents Actions, this includes the Calculation Results section with Detection Rules, Detected Insight and Completed Action Tasks tables.

Calculation Results

The Calculation Results section summarizes which detection rule produced the Action and lists the affected items.

  • Detection Rules summary – Text line showing the series and condition that triggered the Action.

  • Detected Insight – The Detected Insight table lists the individual items that belong to this Action and were flagged by the Agent’s detection rules.

  • Completed Action Tasks – If the Action Tasks are configured for the Agent, additional actions are available on the Description tab so that users can trigger follow‑up workflows directly from selected detected items.

Action Task

  • Create Quote – Available when a Quote Creation Action Task is configured.

    • Users select one or more rows in the Detected Insight and click Create Quote.

    • The system groups the selected items by the CustomerId.
      info If items for more than one customer are selected, a blocking message instructs the user to select items for a single customer.

    • For each customer, a new quote is created and one quote line is added per selected product. The Agent’s recommended price is written into the configured quote line price field.

  • Update Live Price Grid (Price Setting Accelerator Based) – Available when an Update Live Price Grid Action Task is configured.

    • Users select multiple detected items and click Update Live Price Grid.

    • A wizard opens (via context linking) to preview which Live Price Grid items will be updated and to submit the override recommendations derived from the Agent’s recommended price measure.
