Fixed vs Open‑Ended Products

Fixed products

• Represent a specific training item (course, bundle, section) and map directly to one NexPort item.

Open‑ended products

• Let an admin or student select from a defined list of fixed products at assignment time.

• Useful when the purchase is for “one of these courses” rather than a specific one.

Create fixed products

1. Create the product in Catalog → Products and set price/publish.

2. Map it to the target NexPort item under NexPort Product Mappings.

Use open‑ended products

1. Create a nopCommerce product that represents the choice.

2. Configure its mapping to reference the allowed list of fixed products (as supported by your plugin/build).

3. When assigning, select which fixed product the learner receives.

Notes

• Open‑ended assignments select from fixed products at redemption/assignment time.

• Ensure all fixed options are published and mapped.
