Re: relating IndividualProduct to Product

I would suggest to use instead productID

but looks like we need to expand it's datatype ?

the productID is reserved for exactly your case (hard linking an
individualProduct to a "product group" or productID...
however the problem is that the datatype is only text at the moment.
