Product detail
The Product Detail folder contains a record for each detail line for every product. Each detail line represents a defined vendor/unit of measure combination for a product. If the Purchase Unrestricted flag is not marked on a product, only the vendor/unit of measure combinations that are not flagged as obsolete can be used for purchases. If a product can be purchased from multiple vendors, at least one detail line is needed per vendor. If a product can be purchased from a particular vendor in various units of measure, one detail line is needed for each vendor/unit of measure combination.
When you double-click a record in the Product Detail folder, the Product window opens with the product record loaded and with focus on the detail line that corresponds to the item you double-clicked. Other than the initial focus when you enter the Product window through the Product Details folder, the Product window accessed from the Products folder and the window accessed from the Product Details folder behave the same.
