How do the Products of Activities management work in Jimani?
- Answer
Under Products you create what a guest buys or rents with an activity: the Main product with its price per time or per person, an Extra product and Transaction costs. You create them with a window of steps (Products) and change them later with the same window. Each product gets a Name, a VAT group and a price.
- Where to find it
Activities management > Products tab > plus button > Products (
/Activities)- Explanation
The window starts with three choices: Main product, Extra product and Transaction costs. If you choose Main product, you then choose under Choose a product type between Price per time and Price per person. Price per time has steps for name, VAT group and time blocks, for the extra time and the start times, and for the price table per date. Price per person has name, description, photo, extra time, start times, VAT group and up to five prices. The Products tab has filters on Activity and Product types and a menu Actions on each tile. At the top of the tab there is currently the text "Easily block a time period or a whole day. You can even choose to temporarily block certain ticket sales, for example in case of a staff shortage." That text is about the Time limitation; under Products you do not set a time period. See Which pricing model can I choose? and How do I set the price per duration?.
