About this task

A versioned product offering is the customer-facing entity of a product. It contains the product description, pricing, eligibility, and product options. A versioned product offering is always associated with a product specification. Only published product offerings can be added to customer contracts.

Procedure

1. Navigate to All > Product Catalog Management > Offerings > Product Offerings.
2. Select New.
3. On the form, fill in the fields.

   For information about the field descriptions, see the Product offerings form fields section in .

4. Select Submit.
5. In the Product Offerings list, select the versioned product offering that you created.
   The versioned product offerings record appears, with the Product Offering Characteristics and Product Visuals related lists.
6. Add additional characteristics to your versioned product offering, if required.
7. Optional: Add product visuals to your versioned product offering.
   1. In the Product Visuals related list, select New.
   2. Enter a name for the visual.
   3. To select an image file to upload, select Click to add.
   4. To set your image as the primary image for the product, select Set Primary
      Note:

      You can add multiple images for products, but the service catalog only supports one image per product when it is published to the service catalog.
8. When you finish creating the product offering version, do one of the following actions.

   Action	Description
   Publish	Publish the draft product offering so that you can use it in a product catalog: When you publish it, its state changes from Draft to Published. After you publish a product offering, you can't change or delete it, unless you create a version for it.
   Update	Update the product offering with the new data that you added, but don't publish it for use in a product catalog.
   Copy	Copy the data in this product offering so that you can create a product offering from it. For example, you can use the Copy function if you want to create a base version product offering that is similar to Premium SD-WAN Offering v3, but with a separate version track. When you use the Copy function, it creates a base version product offering and sets the values in these fields: Version: 1 (base version) Initial Version: Premium SD-WAN Offering v3 Previous Version: blank
