About Product Bundles

A product bundle is a group of products sold as a package. If you create a product bundle, the user cannot change the items in the bundle or their quantity. If you want the user to be able to select the items, you must use a product with components instead of a product bundle.

A product bundle is itself a product and has a product record. It can also have a part number. You price bundles by assigning them a list price. You cannot use Siebel Pricer to create roll-up pricing based on components or on attributes of components in a bundle. You also cannot use attribute-based pricing to set the price of a bundle based on the attributes of the bundle as a whole.

When you create a bundle, it is added to the product master. This means you can add the bundle to any quote or order. Product packages that you create in a quote or order are bundles that are specific to that quote or order. They are not added to the product master.
