 Understanding Model Statuses

 

Each recommendation model has the following statuses:

Activation Status

The activation status is displayed in the Key Information panel. The following activation statuses can be applied to a model:

  • Draft

    This status is the default status applied to a model when you create it. Once you have completed defining your model, you can submit a request to activate it by choosing Activate in Definition or Preview Recommendations.

  • Activation Pending

    This status is applied to a model until the activation date is reached. On the activation date, a request to generate the model is automatically submitted and the generation status in the Generation Details panel is changed to In Progress for the time it takes to generate the model.

    You can choose to cancel activation of a model with this status in Definition or Preview Recommendations.

  • Active

    This status applied to a model if the request to generate the model on the activation date is successful. The model is then the active model for the model type it is assigned.

    You can choose to deactivate a model with this status in Definition or Preview Recommendations.

  • Expired

    This status is applied to a model once another model of the same model type becomes active, or when you manually deactivate a model.

Generation Status

The generation status is displayed in the Generation Details panel. To update the Status in the Generation Details panel, choose Refresh (Refresh). The following generation statuses can be applied to a model:

  • Not Generated

    This status is the default status applied to a model when you create it. You can manually submit a request to generate a model by choosing Generate in Definition or Preview Recommendations. You can generate a model at any time, unless the model is expired. You can also define a generation refresh rate to automatically generate the algorithms an Active or Pending model contains. For more information, see Creating and Managing Models and Manage Recommendations.

  • In Progress

    This status indicates that the model is currently being generated.

  • Failed

    This status indicates that, although the model generation was initiated, there is a problem that is preventing the model from generating successfully. You can do the following to determine what the problem was:

    1. Open a session in the back-end system.

    2. Run the Analyze Application Log transaction (SLG1).

    3. Enter PRI as the Object and Generation as the Subobject.

      Note Note

      Consider adding Time Restriction parameters to either increase or decrease the amount of log information to analyze.

      End of the note.
    4. Execute the transaction and analyze the log.

  • Successful

    This status indicates that the model is now generated and, depending on the scenario, it is either active or can now be previewed.
