# Product Unit Price Audit (`theonlyxic/my-actor-2`) Actor Compare declared pack and unit prices across saved product snapshots using exact arithmetic. - **URL**: https://apify.com/theonlyxic/my-actor-2.md - **Developed by:** [IGNITE Tools](https://apify.com/theonlyxic) (community) - **Stats:** 2 total users, 1 monthly users, 100.0% runs succeeded, 0 bookmarks - **User rating**: No ratings yet ## Pricing $100.00 / 1,000 completed unit-price audits This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.

It has two run modes. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md. ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run. For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below. Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`). # README ## Product Unit Price Audit Compare supplier prices without confusing a pack price with a per-unit price. The report preserves exact SKUs, shows effective unit-cost changes, and flags declarations that cannot be compared. Launch price: US$0.10 per completed audit report, covering both snapshots within the limits below. One unit-price-audit-completed event per report; no start fee, per-row fee or separate platform-usage charge. Malformed input fails before the report event. Reports with review findings or incompatible products are completed reports and are charged. A new run creates another report and charge. The Store Pricing tab is authoritative. Compare previous_json and current_json JSON text arrays. Each product has exactly seven string fields: sku, price, price_basis, pack_quantity, unit, currency, tax_basis. Exact unique nonblank SKUs preserve leading zeros, case and whitespace (128 characters maximum). Other fields: 64 characters maximum. price and pack_quantity use plain decimal text, maximum 24 characters, 15 integer digits and 8 fractional digits. Positive amounts only. Explicit price_basis is pack or unit; positive pack_quantity is required for both. Currency is uppercase three-letter syntax only. Unit labels must match exactly. tax_basis is inclusive or exclusive. The caller must establish meaning and accuracy of all declarations. Pack effective unit price equals price divided by pack_quantity; unit pricing uses price directly. Different currency, unit or tax basis is not compared. Calculations use exact fractions; display values use eight decimal places and half-even rounding. Every result is review_required. Missing SKUs mean absent from this snapshot, not discontinued. Malformed JSON, duplicate properties, invalid Unicode, missing/extra fields, non-string values, blank/duplicate SKUs reject the input. Other invalid declarations produce explicit row-not-comparable findings. Each snapshot: 2 MiB UTF-8, 10000 rows, nesting 16 and 200000 JSON nodes. Report: 4 MiB; split large batches when necessary. No report is written when the cap is exceeded. No fetching, FX conversion, tax calculation, fuzzy matching, store writes or safety certification. Only submit authorised non-sensitive data; Apify stores input/output. Apify SDK 4.1.0. Use 256 MiB, timeout 60 seconds, restart-on-error and standby off. Existing dataset reports are retained on restart; no exactly-once concurrency guarantee. The implementation passed 46 shared core/boundary/adapter tests. Prior synthetic cloud output confirmed unchanged pack/unit cost, a 100% unit-cost increase from pack shrinkage, and an excluded currency mismatch. This does not establish production reliability or customer adoption. ### Quick start Run the prefilled Input example. SKU001 changes from AUD30 per pack of 12 to AUD2.50 per unit, so its effective cost is unchanged. Added and missing SKUs remain explicit. For pack shrinkage, compare the same SKU at AUD30 per pack with quantity 12 before and quantity 6 after: unit cost rises from 2.50 to 5.00, a 100% increase. ### Who it fits Purchasing and catalogue workflow builders who already have two structured snapshots and confirmed product identities, units, currency and tax treatment. Use previous_json/current_json in Apify Console or through the API. This does not fetch supplier files, parse Excel/PDF, infer units or change a shop. # Actor input Schema ## `previous_json` (type: `string`): JSON text only. Use authorised non-sensitive synthetic or public data. See README for exact fields and limits. ## `current_json` (type: `string`): JSON text only. Use authorised non-sensitive synthetic or public data. See README for exact fields and limits. ## Actor input object example ```json { "previous_json": "[{\"sku\":\"001\",\"price\":\"30.00\",\"price_basis\":\"pack\",\"pack_quantity\":\"12\",\"unit\":\"each\",\"currency\":\"AUD\",\"tax_basis\":\"exclusive\"},{\"sku\":\"002\",\"price\":\"30.00\",\"price_basis\":\"pack\",\"pack_quantity\":\"12\",\"unit\":\"each\",\"currency\":\"AUD\",\"tax_basis\":\"exclusive\"}]", "current_json": "[{\"sku\":\"001\",\"price\":\"2.50\",\"price_basis\":\"unit\",\"pack_quantity\":\"12\",\"unit\":\"each\",\"currency\":\"AUD\",\"tax_basis\":\"exclusive\"},{\"sku\":\"003\",\"price\":\"30.00\",\"price_basis\":\"pack\",\"pack_quantity\":\"6\",\"unit\":\"each\",\"currency\":\"AUD\",\"tax_basis\":\"exclusive\"}]" } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `report` (type: `string`): No description # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
