Overview of Sales Products
Create and edit products in your sales application and then use these products in your sales catalog. The sales catalog is the source for product groups and products in leads, opportunities, contracts, and service requests.
Revenue entered for products (and product groups) drives metrics for sales forecasting and salesperson quota.
