Creating Product Records for a Product with Components and for Its Components

First, you must create product records that represent the product with components as a whole and that represent all of its components.

This task is a step in Process of Designing a Product with Components.

For example, if the product with components is a computer, first you create a product record that for the entire computer and product records for all of its components, such as disk drives, a monitor, and so on. You must create all the products before you can add the components to the product with components.

Create product records in the same way that you do for a simple product, as described in Process of Creating Simple Products.

All these products must be orderable. To make a product orderable, place a check mark in the Orderable check box in the product record.
