Set Up Product Templates

As a one-time task to set up the Oracle Revenue Transformation Solution, you need to set a profile option and map product templates to PIM item templates.

Set the Profile Option

Set the profile option, ORA_QSC_SELECT_PIM_TEMPLATES, at the Site level to No. In Setup and Maintenance, you use the Manage Administrator Profile Values task. Setting this profile option makes the product template mapping UI available in Application Composer.

Overview of Mapping Product Templates

To make the product templates available to the user you've set up as your product manager, you map product templates in Application Composer. This setup involves mapping item templates from PIM names to user-friendly names. For example:
  • Finished Goods > Standard Product
  • PTO > Bundle
  • PTO Options > Bundle Options

The supplied PIM item templates that are accessible to the Sales Administrator have these attributes:

  • Item Class: Root Item Class
  • Organization: QSC_SALES_PRODUCTS_INVENTORY_ORG_ID

Steps to Map Product Templates

  1. Navigate to Configuration > Application Composer > Product Templates.
  2. In the Map Product Templates page, click the add icon.
  3. In the Create Product Template Mapping window, select a PIM item template, for example, PTO Model.
  4. Map a Sales product template to the PIM template by giving it a name that's meaningful to your implementation, for example, Bundle.
  5. Click Add.
  6. As needed, repeat these steps to expose more templates.
  7. Note: You can't map the same PIM template to the same name more than once.
