"We can use a noun as an adjective when it precedes a noun that it modifies; a mountain bike is a bike designed for riding up mountains. 'Mountain' functions as an adjective modifying the noun 'bike'. The second noun takes the plural form, while the first behaves like an adjective and consequently does not, unless the word is normally used in the plural (sports hall) or refers to people (women footballers)."
Wiki appears to confirm that as well, and several online dictionaries."Client Product" might be stretched to be considered adjevtical, but it would appear that "Product by Client" does not. "By" being a preposition, I don't think it can convert a proper and specific noun into an adjective.
But this is all lay knowledge. Fighting it could be more costly than making the revision and looking for a way to bill additional services.
