Defining Facility Product Components

Facility products typically do not include components, unless you are using this component product to add food services or additional options.

 

This task defines products that should be included with the active products at no additional charge. Any product in Personify can be added as a product component. Transactions and pricing will be at the master product level, not at the component level. Packages cannot be included as a component. A common meeting component may be a reception.

 

If revenue needs to be recognized from a bundle of products, the combination of products should be created as a package. Unlike components, each detail included in a package is priced at the product level.

Note.pngComponents are always $0.

1.    Click Define Components from the Define the Product task category.
