Products parent child mapping dataset

Products parent child mapping dataset defining parent-child relationships between products, used by the Rebuy & Replenishment capability of the Merchandising solution for substitution and hierarchy modelling.

The products parent child mapping dataset defines parent-child relationships between products. It is used by the Rebuy & Replenishment capability of the Merchandising solution to model product hierarchies and substitutions, such as grouping product variants under a common parent.

Purpose

The Rebuy & Replenishment capability uses parent-child relationships to aggregate demand and inventory across related products and to model substitution behaviour. This supports more accurate planning where products share a hierarchy, such as size or colour variants of a parent style.

Required fields

parent_idUnique identifier of the parent product in the hierarchy.stringApplicationMust reference a product in the Products dataset.
child_idUnique identifier of the child product mapped to the parent.stringApplicationMust reference a product in the Products dataset. Each child maps to one parent.
