Option types are an additional classification and sorting method that can be used to distinguish different groups of options. Option types are often designated as Design Center and Sales Center. Some builders may set up option types as Kitchen, 3-car garage, or Master Bedroom. Each option is assigned an option type in the Master Models/Options screen. It is advised to set up option types, then do not delete or remove them, since the types are sent and used in the sales center software (if the company integrates WMS with one).
From the Sales Pricing menu select Option Types, or click on the
icon in the Sales Pricing toolbar.
