Prepare to Create a Product Version

Before you can generate a product and register it in the Software Package Library, you must assign a product name and version in the product archive. The product name and version is used to manage the product through software delivery functions.

Products are created using the Create Product Version dialog, where you enter the name and the version for the product. Optionally, you can later specify the product name and version from the vendor by editing the info.sxp.

The Create Product Version dialog is the first in a series of dialogs for the packaging process. You can cancel the packaging process from any of these dialogs by clicking Cancel. If you cancel the packaging process, the Packaging Computer is automatically reset to the state it was in before you began creating the product version.
