Important

You can add only those users to a subcatalog who have the sbe-myit-users permission.

You can assign a user as an internal service supplier or an internal service supplier administrator only to one subcatalog. 

In addition to services, bundles, and service actions, subcatalogs share virtual marketplaces and banners that were defined by one of the following methods:

  • Created by a catalog administrator and assigned to this subcatalog
  • Added by users who are assigned as internal suppliers or internal supplier administrators of this subcatalog.

Important

You cannot associate virtual marketplaces and banners with subcatalogs by using the Sub-catalog Options panel.

You can add virtual marketplaces to subcatalogs only when you create virtual marketpaces. You can banners to subcatalogs only when you create banners.
