Sales Support: Product Catalog 
SAP Retail includes two related advertising functions. Both can handle data for such diverse requirements as printed flyers and catalogs, HTML pages for the world wide web, POS terminals, and CD-ROM catalogs.

·
Product Catalog:
for normal planning, where the advertising piece is not necessarily related to
a promotion. Enables you to construct a catalog in a hierarchical manner,
making it easier for the end user to navigate through the advertising piece
and locate the desired information. It also helps you to modularize the
planning process. The function also keeps track of the status of the data used
(for example, prices missing for certain articles).
The Product Catalog also forms the basis for Internet online stores.

Integration of
Promotion and Product Catalog Functions: for quick planning, where the
catalog is directly related to an existing promotion and where hierarchical
structure is not necessary. Articles are assigned to specific pages within the
catalog and to specific positions on the page. This function is actually part
of the Promotion Management module.
