Products in PIC
Learn how the product catalog that later feeds prices, orders, and commercial tracking is managed.
Prerequisites
Before using this guide, confirm that product groups and the required shared base are correctly defined.
1. Process introduction
The products module holds the items the company offers its customers in the portal. It is a key base so other modules can later operate on a consistent commercial reference.
From here, users can review or maintain the catalog that gives context to prices, sales orders, and operational tracking.
2. Business value
If the catalog is disorganized or incomplete, every later commercial process carries that inconsistency. PIC organizes this point to support a more reliable base.
This improves commercial clarity, reduces errors when selecting items, and enables a more scalable operation.
3. How to operate it in the portal
The logic of this module lies in catalog quality, not in a rigid approval sequence.

Review classification and commercial definition
Validate that the product is correctly identified and associated with a grouping that is useful for the business.
Attribute guide and role within the process
| Field | Meaning | Source or reference | Required | Depends on | Process impact |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Product | Represents the commercial item that can be used in prices and orders. | Managed within the portal catalog. | Yes | Must follow the current commercial and grouping structure. | Reused in later modules of the customer flow. |
| Product group | Places the item within a catalog classification. | Comes from the product groups module. | Optional | Depends on a clear and useful grouping existing. | Improves reading and organization of the catalog. |
Relevant validations and considerations
Keep products conceptually unique
Avoid duplicating products with minor variations if the commercial logic does not require it.
