A product is an item for sale in the product catalogue.

Simple - a single product with no variations
Options - a product that has variations
Shipping - used in a shipping rule, it defines a shipping charge
Paired - [Intact only feature]
Voucher
A product option is a product type defined as a variation of a particular product, which the customer can choose when they buy the product. For example, a pair of shoes could have 5 size options and 4 colour options.
Additional product attributes are extra product data, retrieved from your ERP, which are specific and important to your business process. For example, additional stock information, pack size, minimum selling quantities or outstanding sales orders associated with a product. In WebShop and PocketShop, these attributes are displayed in table format on the product details screen.
A selling unit is an amount that you sell a product in; for example, metres or litres.
A pack size is the number of units contained in a single product; for example, 100 screws in a box, or 10 bars in a box.
