Consider Whether the Membership Should Indicate Subcategories
For some types of memberships, the amount of each service credit event is further grouped by a subcategory. Refer to Events May Indicate a Subcategory for more information.
Use subcategories if multiple subtypes of credits may be accumulated and redeemed and if balances need to be tracked for each subcategory.
For our sample membership types, only the capital credits type should indicate subcategories.
