**Initiating actor:** Logged-In Admin

{{{#!div style="text-align: justify; width: 100%;"
The goal of this use case is to allow an administrator to introduce a new physical format for an existing musical release into the store's inventory. By creating a new product record, the admin can specify unique attributes such as the media format, price, and initial stock levels, making the item available for consumers to purchase.
