Siebel Product Administration Guide > Overview of Product Administration > Product AdministrationThis guide explains product administration for a number of different types of products. You only have to read the chapters that apply to the types of product your company sells. Simple Products Without AttributesThis is a product that only comes in one form, such as a book. The customer does not make any decisions about features of the product. To create simple products without attributes, read Basic Product Administration. Product BundlesA product bundle is a group of products sold together. It cannot be customized. For example, you might offer customers vacation packages that include airfare, hotel accommodations for a specific number of days, and specific special events, all for one price. To create this sort of product, you must read: Simple Products with AttributesA product with attributes has features that the customer can choose but does not have components the customer can choose. For example, a customer buying a t-shirt might be able to choose the shirt's color and its size. The shirt has two attributes, color and size. Each of these attributes has several possible values, such as white, gray, black, and S, M, L, XL. For information about creating simple products with attributes, see Roadmap for Creating Simple Products with Attributes. Products with ComponentsThis is a product with components that a customer can select. For example, a customer buying a computer might have to select a mouse, a floppy disk drive, a monitor, and other components. For information about creating products with components, see Roadmap for Creating Products with Components. Product CompatibilityYou can define global rules that specify which products and promotions are compatible with each other. For more information, see Product and Promotion Eligibility and Compatibility. Product EligibilityYou can define global rules that specify which customers are eligible to buy products and promotions.
