Problem Note 56612: An exception might occur when you attempt to apply a pricing strategy

In SAS^® Regular Price Optimization, an exception with details similar to the following might occur after you attempt to apply a pricing strategy:

java.lang.StackTraceElement - The requested geography key "XXX" was not found. Verify that your SAS data matches transacted data.
com.sas.solutions.di.server.security.api.InvalidHierarchyException: The requested geography key "XXX" was not found. Verify that your SAS data matches transacted data.
	at com.sas.solutions.di.server.security.SecurityHelper.getKeyLevel(SecurityHelper.java:715)
	at com.sas.solutions.di.server.security.SecurityHelper.shareCommonBranch(SecurityHelper.java:854)
	at com.sas.solutions.di.server.security.SecurityHelper.readIntersectsScopeDetail(SecurityHelper.java:1024)
	at com.sas.solutions.di.server.security.SecurityHelper.intersectsScope(SecurityHelper.java:1683)
	at com.sas.solutions.di.server.security.SecurityHelper.intersectsScope(SecurityHelper.java:1515)
	at com.sas.solutions.di.server.security.SecurityHelper.intersectsScope(SecurityHelper.java:1485)
...

The exception is generated after you have performed a geography reclassification and there are pricing rules defined at a dangling node. Dangling nodes are nodes that are not at the lowest level of the hierarchy and do not have other nodes under them.

The workaround for this issue is to review the pricing rules that are affected by reclassification and manually adjust them to ensure that none are defined at a dangling node.
