# Customized Products

The purpose of Customized Products is to allow you to customize the commands when a patch is being installed. Some patches require additional configurations to support licenses, API keys, or other application configuration specifics. When a product update is released, devices assigned to a Deployment Wave or applied Business Unit will install the update using the settings configured in the associated customized product.

## Create Customized Product

#### Product

By default, Patch clients run a full scan every day at a random time between the hours of 6 am and 2pm and use their inherited maintenance window and reboot schedule. The **Product Properties** allow you to set a custom scan schedule, maintenance window override, and reboot window override.

This is useful when some products can be too resource-intensive to scan daily, or need to run during a different maintenance and reboot window than less resource intensive products.

* **Scan Schedule** - Click **Add Scan Schedule** to add an existing schedule or create a new schedule.
* **Maintenance Window Override** - Click **Browse** to select an existing maintenance window or create a new maintenance window.
* **Reboot Override** - Click **Browse** to select an existing reboot window or create a new reboot window.
