Impact of Product Versions and Price List Line Item Effectivity on Component-Based Pricing

A product can have multiple released versions with future dates. In addition, price list line items can have effective dates. As a result, the structure of a product can be dynamic over time, because multiple versions of it can exist.

Component-based pricing takes the following into account:

• Both root customizable product and its components can have multiple versions across a time interval.

• Both root customizable product and its components can have multiple entries on a price list for different effective dates.

• The Customizable Product Adjustments (The CP Pricing Designer) can have multiple versions for different effective dates.

This topic discusses some of the ways that multiple product versions and multiple effective dates affect component-based pricing.
