Projects

Menu Path: Catalog > Projects

The Projects module is a portfolio management tool designed to showcase large-scale deliverables. Unlike products, projects are typically not "sold" through a shopping cart but are displayed to build credibility, attract leads, or show case studies (e.g., real estate developments, software implementations, architectural models).
