Associating Products with Categories


You add products to catalogs by associating them with categories that belong to those catalogs. This is done using the Products tab in the Categories view under the Catalog Administration screen.

NOTE:  The customer will only be able to view products that are both on the activated price list and in catalogs and categories associated with the same access groups with which that customer is associated. For more information, see The Default Price List for the Siebel Life Sciences Employee Application.

All products that are in samples catalogs should have the type Sample.

For information on defining products, see Product Administration Guide.
