Product Type Master is a configuration that helps categorize the various services offered at the gym/club. For example: Membership, Personal Training, Yoga, Mix Martial Arts, etc.
To each of these ‘Product Types’, we need to map their relevant Product Memberships. For example, for a Product Type ‘Membership’, products can be created like
Similarly, for a ‘Product Type’ Personal Training, relevant products can be created like
PT - Platinum 1 Month
PT - Gold 1 Month etc.
This configuration will help you create the Product type for the services offered at your club be it valid based on the number of days or number of sessions. Once we create the product type we need to start with Product Configuration.
