PROBLEM 5 - Portal price limits block prices synchronization
SOLUTION
If you change prices in the system and they are not updated on the portal, make sure that they are within the minimum and maximum price limit set up on the portals account. If the price is lower than the minimum price or higher than the maximum price, the update will not be accepted. You can contact your account manager in order to check or change the limits.
