Enumeration: Visibility

Controls who can access and view specific products.

This enum defines the access control levels for products in the catalog, determining which user groups can see and configure each product. Visibility settings enable businesses to create tiered product catalogs with different offerings for different customer segments.

Product visibility is a powerful tool for managing channel strategies, exclusive offerings, and staged product releases.

Enumeration Members​

PRIVATE​

PRIVATE: "PRIVATE"

Product is visible only to administrative users.

PRIVATE products are accessible exclusively to administrative users (Tier 1 users) of the customer account. These products are completely hidden from all other users, including authenticated Tier 2 users and public visitors.

This visibility level is ideal for:

  • Products in development or testing
  • Internal-use-only configurations
  • Discontinued products that should remain accessible to admins
  • Special configurations for unique orders

PUBLIC​

PUBLIC: "PUBLIC"

Product is visible to everyone.

PUBLIC products are accessible to all users, including unauthenticated visitors, Tier 2 users (assigned companies), and administrative users. These products form the standard, universally available catalog.

This visibility level is ideal for:

  • Standard product lines available to all customers
  • Promotional or flagship products
  • Entry-level or volume products
  • Products marketed to the general public

RESTRICTED_TO​

RESTRICTED_TO: "RESTRICTED_TO"

Product is visible to administrators and specific company groups.

RESTRICTED_TO products are accessible to administrative users (Tier 1) and specifically designated companies (Tier 2) that have been assigned to authorized company groups. Companies not in the authorized groups cannot see or access these products.

This visibility level is ideal for:

  • Premium or exclusive product lines
  • Channel-specific offerings (e.g., dealer-only products)
  • Products with specific qualification requirements
  • Region-specific or segment-specific products
  • Products with limited availability or special pricing
