Normally they can be edited directly, by simply assigning a new value to them. In some scenarios, you may wish to also ensure that ownership history is updated. This function provides that convenience. The method will maintain consistency for PredefinedType attribute based on whether ElementType/ObjectType and whether occurrence is typed: - PredefinedType and ObjectType to be `None` if occurrence is typed - PredefinedType to be "NOTDEFINED" if ElementType/ObjectType is None - PredefinedType to be "USERDEFINED" if ElementType/ObjectType is not None :param product: The product you want to edit.
