  Key Concepts: 
  Product association rule is a feature of SAP CRM-MKT Marketing that allows users to create rules that define how products are associated with each other. These rules can be used to determine which products should be recommended to customers based on their purchase history or other criteria. The rules can also be used to determine which products should be bundled together for promotional purposes. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Product association rules can be created in the SAP CRM-MKT Marketing module. To create a rule, users must first define the criteria for the rule, such as customer purchase history or product category. Then, they must specify the action that should be taken when the criteria is met, such as recommending a product or bundling products together. Finally, they must specify the conditions under which the rule should be applied, such as a certain time period or customer segment. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating product association rules, it is important to consider how the rules will interact with each other. For example, if two rules have conflicting criteria or actions, it may cause unexpected results. Additionally, it is important to test the rules before deploying them in production to ensure they are working as expected.
