Product types help to differentiate between different Money Market financial instruments. Differentiation is necessary if the individual instruments are subject to different processing rules or if you wish to create different levels for evaluation. By assigning different structure characteristics, various forms of transactions can be predefined.

Only via the combination of the product type with a transaction type is the financial transaction finally set.

In this step, you maintain the product types you require.

Activities

  1. Name your product type. You have a 3-character alphanumeric field for this.
  2. Specify the long text and short text for your new product type.
  3. Assign your product type to a product category. The product category is an internal key and controls how the product types assigned to it are processed.

Example

In the Foreign Exchange area, the following product category is available:

  • 600 Foreign exchange
