How To: Create and Manage Products and Product Classifications

This how-to guide will focus on how to create and manage products within Advvy. Products are a set of records that can be created and associated with Clients, Campaigns and Team Groups, and may be another useful field in your reporting. It is not mandatory to add a product to a campaign, however it is recommended to add products to utilize the Team Groups and Advvy Team Work functions. 

Products can be whatever your agency or client needs to define for a campaign. Products can be physical products (brand products) or can be defined as intangible products (“Events”, “Aged Care”, “Fundraising”).  

The Products section allows you to view, add, edit, delete, activate / deactivate, and assign products to clients in this section.
