You need an engineering product type to create or release an engineering product. In this topic, you create the engineering product type and fill in the main fields. Once the engineering product type is created, you cannot edit these fields. ### Steps 1. Go to **Product engineering** > **Setup** > **Engineering product type.** 2. Click **New**. 3. In the **Name** field, type a value. 4. In the **Engineering company** field, enter or select a value. 5.
