Creating Product Lines

Product lines are used to group your products.

For example, if you sell clothing, men's shirts may be one product line, women's shirts may be a second product line, and so on.

NOTE:  You can add products to a product line by selecting them when you add the Product Line record, as described in this procedure. When you create a new product that is part of the product line, you can add it to the product line by selecting it in the Product Line field of the Product record.

To create a product line name

1. Navigate to the Administration - Product screen, then the Product Lines view.
2. In the Product Lines list, add a new record and complete the necessary fields. Some fields are described in the following table.

   Field	Comments
   Product Line	Enter a name for the product line.
   Product Line Manager	Optionally, select product line managers and other key personnel associated with the product line.
   Products	Select all the products in this product line.
