Hi all, apologies for this basic question but I wasn't able to readily find it via search. I am trying to create an alert in Expert Flyer for an AC flight that I plan to would like to book with another Star Alliance program if/when AC releases seats. For some reason this doesn't appear to be the straightforward process in EF for AC that it is on other airlines. Which are the fare bucket classes for award J/X that I need to setup alerts for?

Reward Y = X
A note to anyone else reading, those fare buckets are irrelevant if you are redeeming Aeroplan points on AC metal.

Thank you, I tried inputting those into the Other Fare Classes box on EF, but when I submit it gives an error saying "You must select at least one Award or Upgrade class for the airline." The only boxes I can check are:
Business - E-Upgrades (R)
Business - International - Upgrade from O/Y/B (P)
Business - NA - Upgrade from O/Y/B (Z)
When I check those boxes, it gives another error saying "Class Code is required when its checkbox is checked."

Not irrelevant, just incomplete. Many AC flights *are* released as X / I, namely all the inventory shared with Star Alliance partners.
