Manage PIDs

Manage PIDs lets you define articles that are a combination of other individual articles.

Key Term:	Taxonomy: a taxonomy is a scheme of classification used for an organization’s products.
Description:	PID is a virtual product that groups a product line related to a brand. By managing PIDs, the related products of a seller or a brand can be grouped in one place.
Related topics:	Embedded Variants within Context Manage Data Transfer
Application:	Form a group of related products. Use PIDs for a set of similar products that differ in one or two properties. Example: Let’s take for instance, Maggi. The different flavors of Maggi (Chicken, Cheese, and Vegetable) can be brought under one virtual product. As a result, a customer or a retailer can view a product line as virtual products.
