# Manage product tiers

Product Tiers are retail product versions you define, such as Standard, Deluxe, or Premium. **Core Data > Product Tiers** maintains shared tiers after you create them from a product. There is no **Create** button on this tab.

## Create and assign a tier

Start with the product you want to label:

* **Saved custom recipe:** Open **Retail Library > Recipes**, select the recipe's card, and scroll to **Product Tier** in **Modify Template**. See [Add a tier to a saved recipe](/reference/retail-library/recipes/create-and-edit-recipes.md#add-a-product-tier).
* **Product in a retail plan:** Open the plan's **Recipes** tab, expand the product, and select **Edit Product Identifiers** under **Product Details**. See [Add a tier to a plan product](/reference/retail-plan-page/recipes/manage-product-details.md#add-a-product-tier).

In either **Product Tier** field, select an existing tier or type a new name and select the **Add** option. For example, type `Deluxe` and select **Add 'Deluxe'**. Selecting that option creates the tier and assigns it to the product, even when there were no tiers to choose from before. Typing alone does not create it.

Return to **Core Data > Product Tiers** to see the new tier and its **Product Count**. Product Tier controls are available when product details are enabled for your workspace; a visible field needs no separate enabling step.

## Find and rename a tier

1. From **Core Data**, open **Product Tiers**.
2. Find the tier and review **Product Count** to understand where it is used.
3. Select the edit icon, enter the replacement name, and save.

The new name appears on products that use the tier. Rename a shared tier label only when the replacement remains accurate for every product in the count. For example, correct a general version label that your team uses across the retail catalog.

The editor warns that saving changes the tier for every product that uses it.

Do not use a tier as a substitute for a Product Code. A tier groups product versions for comparison, while a code identifies a product. Keeping those choices separate makes the **Product Count** column more useful when you review the retail catalog.

## Delete a tier

Select the delete icon only when the tier is no longer useful. Deletion removes the tier from associated products and cannot be undone. It does not remove those products, but they no longer have that tier. Review **Product Count** first and consider a rename when the current tier should remain assigned.
