Remarks

A product family is a product that contains product variants. A product family is not distinct from a product in any other way. A product family is an instance of the ProductFamily type. A product family is not a sellable unit. It is a logical container for product variants.

Examples

/// <summary>
/// Creates a product in the catalog
/// </summary>
internal ProductFamily CreateProductAndAddVariants(string catalogName, string definitionName, string productId, string variantId)
{
  try
  {
    BaseCatalog baseCatalog = (BaseCatalog)catalogContext.GetCatalog(catalogName);
    ProductFamily product = (ProductFamily)baseCatalog.CreateProduct(definitionName, productId);
    // Once the product is created additional properties can be set on the product
    product.DisplayName = "New Display name";
    product.ListPrice = 19.99M;
    // Add the variant to the product
    product.AddVariant(variantId);
    // Finally save the changes to the catalog system by calling product.Save
    product.Save();
    return product;
  }
  catch (EntityAlreadyExistsException ex)
  {
    Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
    throw;
  }
}
