Unique Product IDs for Billing Resources
To simplify reconciliation, stock keeping, and reporting, providers now can use automatically assigned unique Product IDs for Billing resources they sell. Product IDs compensate for the deficiencies of MPNs, which may not be unique per resource or may be missing for some resources.
For providers who have several CloudBlue Commerce installations, automatically assigned Product IDs are a simple and reliable way to identify the same product across several installations. For more information, please see Product ID Synchronization Across Installations.
Backward Compatibility
After the feature is activated, both new and existing Billing resources will be automatically assigned unique Product IDs.
Activation
To use the feature:
- Activate the Product ID functionality on the necessary installation.
- Configure Product ID Template.
Known Limitations
None.
