# Product hierarchy in Release Management

A release can be an enterprise release, in which it is associated to all products or services or to more than one product. In either case, defining a product is not required.

If a product has releases defined, the **Product Hierarchy** related link displays the hierarchy of releases, phases, and phase tasks associated with the product.
