Products are the goods or services that your company sells or provides to customers. In SAP Sales Cloud Version 2, you can maintain various settings for products, such as product type, units of measure, and product classification. These settings are relevant for defining the characteristics, pricing, and availability of products.
Product Type: This setting determines the category of the product, such as material, service, or warranty. The product type affects the behavior and fields of the product, such as whether it can be ordered, invoiced, or delivered. You can define your own product types and assign them to product categories in the Administrator work center1.
Units of Measure: This setting specifies the unit in which the product is sold or measured, such as pieces, kilograms, or hours. You can define your own units of measure and assign them to product categories in the Administrator work center1.
Product Classification: This setting allows you to assign attributes and values to products based on predefined classification systems, such as industry standards or customer-specific criteria. You can use product classification to filter, group, or compare products based on their attributes. You can define your own classification systems and assign them to product categories in the Administrator work center1.
The other two options, number range and product groups, are not relevant settings for maintaining products in SAP Sales Cloud Version 2.
Number Range: This setting is used to define the range of numbers that can be assigned to business documents, such as sales orders, invoices, or tickets. Number range is not a setting for products, but for business transactions2.
Product Groups: This setting is used to group products into hierarchical structures based on common characteristics, such as product line, product family, or product model. Product groups are not a setting for products, but for product portfolio management3.
