Typedef struct pointer to another typedef struct

I have some problems with this code: 

typedef struct Product {

    char product_code[5];
    int sells;
    int sells_quantity;
}p[3];

typedef struct Seller {
    char seller_code[5];
    Product *ptr;
}seller[5];

Why does it give me an error for Product *ptr?

You can do this : 

typedef struct Product {

char product_code[5];
int sells;
int sells_quantity;
}p[3],Product;

typedef struct Seller {
  char seller_code[5];
  Product *ptr;
}seller[5];

Could you try replace your code 

typedef struct Product {

    char product_code[5];
    int sells;
    int sells_quantity;
}p[3];

With 

typedef struct Product {

    char product_code[5];
    int sells;
    int sells_quantity;
} Product;               // from here the structure type Product is recognized by the compiler.
