Description[edit]
Naming[edit]
There are two names used in this app for Product:
- Naming 1: The word Product is used as a general synonym for article.
- Naming 2: The word Product is used as a synonym with Product version.
Versions[edit]
Any product that is created, is automatically set on version 0. Further modification to the product such as Awarding to a new supplier and Renegotiation will set a new product version.
Statuses[edit]
Active[edit]
Meaning: An active product has an active supplier assignment. The status indicates that the product is used with operational business processes (also those outside XLR8).
Logic: The status Active can be set manually. It can also be set to Active if the product is the result of an awarding decision.
Version: The product version can be Any (0 and higher).
Inactive[edit]
Meaning: A product that is still in development or in the tender phase. It is not used for operational processes (yet) and it does not have an active supplier assignment.
Logic: The status is given when a new product (version) is created manually in the PDB.
Version: The product version can be Any (0 and higher).
Expired[edit]
Meaning: A product that has been used before (and not anymore) for operational processes like ordering... .
