The items are files which represent the state of your product.

Back: Save and go back to Edit Product Part I.
- Save changes only: If you are not sure to publish this version yet, save it and continue editing it later. To do so go to "MyMarketplace" and in the section "MyProducts" select the option “Edit Product” of the product you want to edit. After that, press Next in order to go into section "Edit Product Part II". Almost at the bottom you will see a grid with all versions you have created, click the one you want to edit.
Note: If you have created a product as other developer, you can select its profile from the “Logged in as” ComboBox in the left panel to manage it.
- Save and start approval process: Your job is done for now, after this the GeneXus Marketplace administrators will check out your product. The administrators can whether publish the new version in the GeneXus Marketplace, or not.
You are able to create one version at the time. Once the version you have created is approved and published in the Marketplace, you can create a new version.
It is not possible to delete or change items of a version which has been approved. For any changes you want to make to your product you will have to create a new version.
When creating a new User Controls or Extensions version, some validation tests are run before saving the version. These validation tests checks that the User Control or Extension files have the right format. If any error message appear, please read the User Controls or Extensions errors reference, or contact us.
The User Control or Extension version name is set automatically when uploading the main item, because of that, the Version Name field is disabled when creating the new version in the Marketplace.
