For adding products manually, please click on the distribution type “Physical Media Products“ and “New article“ (see figure below).

 

 

 

A new window with the product editor will open (see figure below).

 

 

The product editor offers the possibility to adopt the metadata from an already existing, digital product. Select the proper product from the drop-down menu and click “Adopt“ (see figure below).

 

Once you’ve done that, all fields will be filled in, using the data from the digital product. 

 

First you will be asked, whether the contract belonging to the digital product should be adopted as well. If you click “yes”, the digital contract and its contractual partners will be copied.

 

 

 

Please check the metadata in the product editor and change or add data if needed. The editor also offers the possibility to add further tracks that are not included on the digital product, such as bonus tracks, etc.

 

 

If all data is correct and valid, click “save” and close the editor.

 

 

 

Once it has been saved, the new physical product will appear in the tree structure underneath the distribution type “Physical Media Products“.

 

 

Products that are colored red in the structure do not have contractual partners and conditions yet. Add contractual partners (recording licensors) by double-clicking on the product.

 

Note: For a successful accounting run, all contracts need to be complete and valid.

 

If you want to edit a product, please select the product and then click on the editing symbol (see figure below).

 

 

 

 

If you want to delete a product and its contract, select the product and click on the delete symbol (see figure below).
