Raytio's Global Product Model (GPM) is the product and service catalogue that powers the marketplace. It represents every sellable, bookable, or comparable item — from radiology procedures to insurance products to beauty services — in a consistent, tenant-scoped model.
The GPM data model is built around a single master item catalogue connected to four supporting concepts — categories and hierarchies, attributes and values, relationships, and actions (CTAs). Understanding how these relate is the key to understanding how Raytio's product catalogue works.
Item actions define the call-to-action (CTA) buttons displayed in the marketplace for each item — for example "Compare", "Get a Quote", or "Book Now". Actions can be defined directly on a leaf item or on a category ancestor and inherited downward, so that an entire category of items shares the same CTAs without duplication.
GPM item attributes are powered by the generic Foundation Extensible Fields (FND EFF) system using entitytype = 'GPMITEM'. This lets any domain — insurance, radiology, beauty — define typed attribute sets on items without schema changes, while sharing a single consistent model across the platform.
GPM uses two distinct but complementary concepts for organising items:
Items in the GPM module are connected to each other through directed relationships. Each relationship links a child item to a related item with a typed relationship. The most important type is BELONGSTOCATEGORY, which builds the catalogue hierarchy, but the system supports additional types for substitutes, accessories, and other associations.
Resource settings store authorisation policy limits associated with individual items. These settings define resource-level constraints — for example, how many times an item can be used, or a monetary cap on a service — that the authorisation engine evaluates at runtime.
An Item is the fundamental unit in the GPM module. The item catalogue is the master register of everything the platform can sell, book, compare, or categorise — radiology procedures, insurance products, subscription plans, credit bundles, and the category nodes that organise them.
