When to use Product Extension and when Price Parameter?

Question

How to decide when to make a new table as a Product Extension or as Price Parameters?

What drives such decision?

Answer

The decision point is – when the table has Product as a key, then make it a Product Extension. When it is other general table (i.e., not related to Product), make it a Price Parameter.

By the way, when you make a Product Extension, you can make it available at the Product Detail page.

Product Extensions can be also used to restrict visibility of Products for certain users (via the Product Filter in User Management).
