Engineering Release lets you manage the engineering definition of a product, which comprises the
instances of products. Products are assemblies and parts that you build in
CATIA and open in Engineering Release. You can also create products in Engineering Release and open them in CATIA to build assemblies or parts from them. Products can also be
objects that you associate with parts and assemblies. These can include documents,
properties, specifications, and materials.
You can create, duplicate, and compare products, view relationships between them, and create
additional versions. Products also have their own lifecycle, can be copied, deleted, or
transferred from one owner to another.
