   Description of product basic information:

   Information	Mandatory	Description
   Product Name	Yes	The product name must be unique.
   Vendor	Yes	Automatically filled based on the tenant to ensure accuracy and reduce manual errors. You can manually change it if a different vendor name is needed.
   Regions	No	Specify the regions where the product is supported. After entering a region, press Enter to generate a region label. Multiple region labels can be added. Note: When creating a version, the selectable regions will be limited to these specified regions.
   Max.Volume	Yes	The maximum production volume of a product can't exceed 999,999,999. The total volume of batches can't exceed this limit.
   Version Approval	No	This feature is enabled by default to ensure that all version data used for device production is verified. After you choose Manual, any version created in the PROD environment requires manual approval from the Product Owner or Product Manager before it can be used to create a batch。
   Batch Expiry Duration	No	You can set the Default Duration, Min Duration, and Max Duration (in days). When creating a batch, the Expiry Time must be within this set range.

   tip

   By default, the product creator is set as the Product Owner. To change the Product Owner, click the Options icon for the Product Owner and select Transfer Owner on the Member tab, then choose the new Product Owner and click Confirm.

   After a product is created, its initial status is Draft. Once a version is created, the product status will change to Released. For more information, refer to the description of product status.
