The SAP Commerce Promotion Engine is specifically designed for business-user-maintainable, rule-based pricing and promotions. It allows the definition of complex conditions (like customer segment, cart total) and actions (like percentage discount, fixed price) without code changes, making it the most strategic and scalable choice for dynamic pricing requirements.

In the SAP Commerce backoffice (SmartEdit), the enabled/disabled state of the save button is typically controlled by the `dirty` flag in the AngularJS controller scope. If this binding is not correctly implemented, the button will not react to changes in the form data. This is a common front-end integration issue to check before investigating deeper backend or infrastructure problems.

The File-based Data Import (also known as Essential Data) is the recommended mechanism for scheduled, bulk data loads. Setting `legacy mode` to false enables its modern, transactional, and incremental update capability. It processes imports in the background, can handle failures gracefully, and does not require application downtime, making it suitable for regular operational updates.

The ‘Multi Buy’ promotion type in SAP Commerce is designed for these scenarios. It allows you to define that a customer must buy ‘X’ number of products from a qualifying group (the category) to receive a reward. The ‘Cheapest Product Discount’ reward type specifically applies the discount to the least expensive item in the qualifying set, perfectly matching the business requirement.

The `cmscockpit` extension provides the Content Management System (CMS) cockpit within the SAP Commerce backoffice. It is the specialized workspace where business users can create, manage, and preview content slots, components, and pages without needing technical knowledge, separating content management from product data management.

Search behavior for phrases is fundamentally governed by the text analysis defined in the Solr schema. The analysis profile (using a tokenizer like `StandardTokenizerFactory` and filters like `WordDelimiterFilterFactory` or `SynonymFilterFactory`) determines how “wireless mouse” is broken into tokens and processed. If the analysis strips punctuation and splits on hyphens, “Mouse – wireless” would become tokens [“mouse”, “wireless”], enabling the match. Incorrect analysis is the root cause of such issues.

In SAP Commerce, a custom OCC endpoint requires: 1) `@Controller` to define it as a Spring MVC controller. 2) `@RequestMapping` (or more specific annotations like `@GetMapping`) to map HTTP requests to handler methods. 3) `@ApiVersion` (e.g., `@ApiVersion(“v2”)`) to specify the API version under which the endpoint should be exposed (e.g., `/occ/v2/…`). All three are necessary for a properly integrated endpoint.

The correct sequence is: 1) **Define** the new attribute in the `*-items.xml` file. 2) **Apply** the type system change to the running database by performing a `system update` (e.g., via HAC or using `ant updatesystem`). This creates the new column. 3) **Populate** the data. For existing users, create and execute ImpEx scripts to migrate data into the new `certificationLevel` field. Running `initialize` would wipe the database, which is not appropriate for a productive update.

To diagnose performance at the query level, you need detailed logging. Configuring Log4j to output DEBUG or TRACE level logs for relevant packages (e.g., `de.hybris.platform.persistence`, `de.hybris.platform.solrfacetsearch`) will cause the platform to log every FlexibleSearch query and Solr request it executes, along with their execution time. This allows you to pinpoint which specific query from the CMS component is causing the slowdown.
