Sales Components

Use

With the sales component relation, you can add products to a sales package product.

Prerequisites

You have created a product category for sales packages and assigned the product role Sales Package to this category. For more information, see Creation of Categories and Hierarchies.

You have created a product in the Sales Package category.

Procedure

1. Create Relationships

The component structure is a hierarchical table with all sales package components. The sequence of the components is important, as it is applied at runtime. The structure includes products and groups.

Create relationships as follows:

  • Sales components

    You assign various components to the main sales package product using the Sales Components relationship type. You can link other products to these assigned products using other relationship types, such as Dependent Components. However, the link between the top package product and the products on the top level of the sales package hierarchy must be maintained using the Sales Components relationship type.

  • Dependent components

    You use this type to create links between a main product and dependent products. You can only create these links between the components and the main product using the Dependent Components relationship type.

2. Assign Products and Groups

  1. Assign individual products or groups to the component structure.

  2. Set the following indicators if applicable:

    • Optional

      Sets the product to optional so that the customer can deselect this product in the order or quotation. The product is not mandatory for the sale of the package.

    • Default

      Sets the product to the default product option. The customer can deselect the product.

  3. Maintain the necessary rules.
