| product category (FS-AM-PR-PR) |
A description framework for characterizing products in the system.
A product category consists of attributes that are structured in the attribute hierarchy. Product categories are predefined in the system and have a basic quantity of attributes that restrict the description options.
Customers have the option of defining their own attributes and assigning these to the product-specific attribute hierarchy, in order to extend the description options.
The characteristic values of the attributes of the product category form an actual product.
