    Hello,

    Regarding querying for intangible & tangible products querying life-cycle.
    Also associating the relationships between them and linking to actual daily transactions life-cycle including payments and history.
    looking to check which API Spec is suitable for the above mentioned entities.

    Best Regards,

    Products for which there is business value in recording them (i.e. perhaps not accessories such as batteries, earphones, etc.) would be maintained in Product Inventory (Open API TMF637). I would expect to see here a history of the changes to the product.
    The Payment API (TMF676) includes a reference to the entity involved in the payment, this would typically be a product order, a customer bill, or similar.
    Hope it helps
