  • Key Concepts: 
    A subnode is a component of the SAP Product Information Network (LOD-CID-PIN). It is a hierarchical structure that allows users to store and access product information. The subnode is the lowest level of the hierarchy and contains the most detailed information about a product. 
    
    How to use it: 
    Subnodes are used to store and access product information in the SAP Product Information Network. They are organized in a hierarchical structure, with each subnode containing more detailed information than the one above it. To access a subnode, users must first navigate to the parent node and then select the desired subnode. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When navigating through the SAP Product Information Network, it is important to remember that each subnode contains more detailed information than the one above it. This means that users should start at the highest level of the hierarchy and work their way down until they find the information they need.
