Hi Sudhakar, in order to use the standard product-based features (opportunities, quotes, orders and invoices) you have to set up your product catalogue first. This means creating the products (which you have done), unit groups and discount lists (optional), and also adding the products to price lists. Once you have completed the product catalog, you'll be able to add products to quotes.

You can attach two kinds of Quote Line Items to a Quote:
- Existing Products
- Write-In Products
"Existing Products" are a way of linking previously created CRM Products to a Quote as a Line Item. You won't see any entries in this view until you have created a 'New Quote Product'.
"Write-In Products" are a way of linking arbitrary, non-Product related, Line Items to a Quote.
I don't know why your 'New Quote Product' isn't displaying. Did it error?
