    Hi,

    I've been looking through the GB922 documentation to see if there's a clear guideline on when to reuse a Product Specification (PS) versus creating a new one.

    For example: If I have an advanced voice product line and plan to launch a new version with a few added services, should I use the same PS and update it with the new information? Even if the original version of the offer wouldn't make sense with this updated information?

    I'm currently involved in discussions about balancing the need to minimize the number of products/generic products against the need to specialize the PS when new behaviors or features are introduced.

    Does anyone have any references or best practices on this topic?

    Thanks
