Configure the Product Types

The Insurance Product Factory allows you to define Product Types independently (e.g.health insurance, property insurance, travel insurance, or pet insurance), so that they can be used in conjunction with multiple insurance products. From the business perspective, Product Types help you sort out product records faster, and also make it easier to gather data for reporting and analysis.
