Products Module

Designed to be flexible, the Product Catalog application allows for multiple product and service configurations that help you meet business objectives and manage your customer's ever-changing buying behavior.

Products represent physical or virtual goods or services that are offered for sale to customers. Products have their own recurrence period and can be sold as subscriptions, add-ons, or one-time services.

The Product Catalog application enables you to create new products, edit and manage your products, create promotional discounts, define agreements, and define relationships and dependencies that determine what is sold.

To be sold, a product must have an introduction date, a price, and a status of Active. You can save a new product in Draft status if you are not ready to make it available for sale.

After you set an initial price, you can add additional prices for a product. You can also link associated products to establish relationships that determine how products are sold. Refer to Product Relationships for more information about managing these relationships.

Products can also be associated with an agreement, which contain the terms through which you offer products and services to your customers. Refer to Product Relationships for more information about linking agreements.

Products can also be created and managed in the Products application. Also refer to Before Creating a Product for information you may need before creating a new product.
