An effective use of Products might be to create Products "X", "Y", and "Z", each with Components "User Interface", "Database", and "Business Logic". They might also change group permissions so that only those people who are members of Group "Z" can see components and bugs under Product "Z".</P

This team will also generally want to track the progress of bugs over their life cycle, thus the need for the "Q/A Contact" field in a Bug.</P
