Membership Claim Types

Membership claim types may be used to categorize claims for claim processing purposes (Memberships>Claims). For example, stay related claims could be assigned a STAY type. Claims related to renewals of lapsed memberships could be assigned a REINSTATE type, and so on. Which claim types you configure is entirely flexible.

To configure membership claim types, select Configuration>Profiles>Memberships>Claim Types. The Membership Claim Types screen appears.
