As has been seen with other business entities contained within the Market/Sales domain there may be a number of other attributes that are important in characterizing CompetitorProductCorrelations.  For example, the characteristic can take on a discrete value, such as geographic disbursement (central, national, cascading), can take on a range of values, (for example, Competitor ProductOffering revenue of $500,000 - $1,000,000), or can be derived from a formula (for example, number of MarketSegments in correlation = number of MarketSegments related to this correlation).   The CharacteristicSpec/Characteristic and Composite/Atomic patterns used through the Market/Sales domain are also applied here to accommodate this need.  These entities as they relate to CompetitorProductCorrelation are shown in the figure below.<br/>
