Step 1: Create an individual product

To create an individual product:
Sign in to Global Commerce.
Go to the Product Setup wizard and choose one of the following options:

Click Next.
Select the supported locales. See Supported Locales for details.
Select the checkbox next to each locale you plan to support.
Select the Default option next to a locale you want to use as the default. The system will use the default locale to display in your store if the shopper’s locale is unknown.
Select the Restrict Product Visibility and Purchasing to Locales Below checkbox, if required. This checkbox allows you to sell this product only to the selected locales.
Click Next.
Add the product to catalogs and categories.
Under Add Product to Catalogs, select the checkbox next to each catalog where you want the product to appear.
Under Add Product to Categories, select the checkbox next to each category where you want your product to appear. You must select a catalog before you can select a category.
