Create Features and Product Features in Salesforce
A feature is a product or service component that is not offered as an individual sale item, e.g. computer accessories or an extra mobile data plans. By adding features to a product, your product entity becomes a package or a kit of features. Rate plans define how you price, and features define what you get.
There is a many-to-many relationship between features and products in the product catalog. A product can contain multiple features, and a feature can belong to multiple products.
In Zuora Quotes, you can create Features and add Features to Products to enhance your product offerings.
