Abstract: In embodiments, the present invention provides a method and system for creating a pricing plan. The method may include receiving a baseline including at least one entity plan, creating a pricing plan, validating an assumption used in creating the pricing plan, and making the pricing plan available to a price planner for implementing the pricing guidelines. The pricing plan may include pricing guidelines that, when applied to units for sale, are projected to yield results conforming to at least one objective of the at least one entity plan. The method may further include receiving approval to transmit the pricing plan. Furthermore, the method may include transmitting an alert when validating the assumption fails.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and system for adjusting a pricing plan. The method may include receiving a baseline and performing a feedback loop method. The feedback loop method may comprise analyzing the pricing plan to see if the pricing plan may include pricing figures that, when applied to units for sale, are projected to yield results conforming to at least one objective of the entity plan, setting the pricing figures so that the pricing figures, when applied to units for sale, are projected to yield the results. The method may further comprise receiving the entity plan, an adjustable parameter, an adjustable attribute, an adjustable rule, and data considered in analysis. The method may comprise repeating the feedback loop method. Further, a second logical flow may branch out of the feedback loop method and may operate substantially in parallel to the flow of the feedback loop.

Abstract: In embodiments of the present invention, a method and system of a guideline manager is provided for receiving a pricing plan of record, identifying at least one product within the pricing plan of record, determining at least one guideline for carrying out the pricing plan with respect to the at least one product, making available the at least one guideline, receiving data related to carrying out the pricing plan with respect to the at least one product, and altering the at least one guideline in response to the data.

Abstract: In embodiments of the present invention, a method and system is provided for producing a pricing plan of record. The present invention may provide for determining a pricing plan, the pricing plan specifying unit price guidelines for a plurality of items based on anticipated demand, the pricing plan being directed at substantially achieving at least one aspect of an entity plan on an aggregated basis and making available the pricing plan of record.

Abstract: In embodiments of the present invention improved capabilities are described for a hierarchical publication of at least one object. Embodiments of the present invention relate to hierarchy publication for creating an object, wherein the object contains a plurality of object parts. Embodiments of the present invention relate to hierarchy publication by creating an object with a plurality of components and associating each of the plurality of components with information relating to a plurality of intended recipients within a hierarchy.

Abstract: In embodiments, the present invention provides methods and systems, including, without limitation, a platform, for producing a pricing plan of record for an entity by determining a pricing plan, the pricing plan specifying price guidelines for a plurality of items on an individual basis while simultaneously being directed at substantially achieving an objective of at least one entity plan on an aggregated basis, and making the pricing plan available in a planning tool used to set prices for the items.

Abstract: Enterprise methods and systems are provided in which decision types are defined with attributes that can be stored as decision objects that assist in storing and executing decisions. The methods and systems include methods for logically linking decision processes based on commonality of decision variables across different aspects of an enterprise.
