Operating Manual: AARON X PRICESHOES CDMX Integration and Usage

1. Prerequisites and Scope

This manual details the procedures for integrating and operating the AARON X PRICESHOES CDMX tool. This is a Tier-4 SaaS (Software as a Service) platform designed for automated price monitoring, competitive analysis, and market intelligence within the Mexico City (CDMX) retail footwear sector. It leverages AI-driven data aggregation and analytics.

Scope: This guide applies to authorized users with active SaaS subscriptions. It covers initial setup, core workflow execution, and basic troubleshooting.

Prerequisites:

  • A valid user account and subscription for the AARON X PRICESHOES CDMX service.
  • Administrative access to your company's product catalog (SKU list).
  • A modern web browser (Chrome 90+, Firefox 88+, or Edge 90+).
  • Stable internet connection.
  • API credentials (for automated integration scenarios).

2. Step-by-Step Operating Procedures

  1. Account Initialization and Login

    Navigate to the official service portal via the provided URL. Enter your registered email and password. Upon first login, you will be prompted to complete your business profile and agree to the terms of service.

    Expected Result: Successful access to the main dashboard, displaying an overview panel.

  2. Configuring Your Product Portfolio

    In the ‘Products’ section, upload your SKU list. The system accepts CSV or XLSX formats. The file must contain columns for Internal_SKU, Product_Name, Brand, and Target_Competitor_Links (optional).

    Code Example (CSV header):
    Internal_SKU,Product_Name,Brand,Category,MSRP
    NK-AF1-01,Nike Air Force 1 '07,Nike,Men's Sneakers,1299

    Expected Result: The system parses and displays your product list. AI models will begin mapping your SKUs to competitor listings.

  3. Setting Up Monitoring Parameters

    Access the ‘Monitoring’ tab. Here, define:

    • Frequency: Choose scraping intervals (e.g., Daily, Every 6 hours).
    • Competitors: Select from the pre-defined list of monitored CDMX retailers.
    • Alerts: Set price change thresholds (e.g., alert if price drops by more than 10%).

    Expected Result: The automated monitoring job is scheduled. Initial data will appear within the first cycle.

  4. Executing a Manual Data Fetch & Reviewing Reports

    For an immediate data pull, click “Run Now” in the Monitoring dashboard. Once data is collected, navigate to the ‘Analytics’ section. Key reports include:

    • Price Positioning: A chart showing your price vs. competitors for each SKU.
    • Stock Availability Dashboard: Real-time competitor stock levels.
    • Trend Analysis: AI-generated insights on pricing patterns.

    Expected Result: Comprehensive visual and tabular data representing the current market state for your configured products.

  5. Exporting Data and Using API Links

    All reports can be exported as CSV, PDF, or JSON. For system integration, use the provided API endpoints. Your unique API key is found under ‘Settings’ > ‘API Access’.

    Code Example (cURL request for pricing data):
    curl -X GET "https://api.priceshoes-cdmx.aaronx.com/v1/prices?sku=NK-AF1-01" -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

    Expected Result: Successful data export or a JSON API response containing the requested competitive intelligence.

3. Common Issues and Troubleshooting

Issue 1: Product Mapping Failure
Symptom: Your SKUs show as "Not Mapped" in the dashboard.
Solution: Verify the product name and brand in your upload file match common market listings. Use the manual “Link Finder” tool to provide a direct competitor product URL for the AI to learn from.

Issue 2: No Data Returned from Monitoring Cycle
Symptom: Reports are empty after a scheduled run.
Solution: First, check the system status page for any service incidents. Second, verify that your selected competitors and target product links are still active and accessible. Adjust monitoring frequency if the competitor site has anti-bot measures.

Issue 3: API Authentication Error
Symptom: Receiving `401 Unauthorized` or `403 Forbidden` responses.
Solution: Regenerate your API key in the settings panel. Ensure the key is correctly included in the request header as `Authorization: Bearer [API_KEY]`. Confirm your subscription plan includes API access.

Issue 4: Inaccurate Price Detection
Symptom: Reported prices are significantly off-market.
Solution: This is often due to dynamic pricing or page layout changes on the competitor site. Report the specific product link via the “Flag Data” button. The AI model will be retrained for that source.

For issues not resolved above, contact technical support through the ‘Help’ widget within the application, providing relevant screenshots and error logs.
