   * Standard Product
   * Configurable Product With Options
   * Product Bundle
   * Bundle Component
   * Collection<img src="https://mintcdn.com/kibocommerce-59e68a4a/yPPx2ALUR4FHFmVl/img/product-type-basic-settings.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=yPPx2ALUR4FHFmVl&q=85&s=dfa1df1b54817c49329da16be252dc5c" alt="The name field and supported usage types of product type configurations" width="764" height="616" data-path="img/product-type-basic-settings.png" />

6. In the **Advanced** section, select whether this product type is a physical item, service item, digital item, digital credit item, or digital gift card. This will determine the product type's "goods type" which is an irreversible setting and will impact the workflow of shipments with items of that product type.
   * **Physical:** This is the default goods type used by most products. They can be associated with inventory which will be referenced when creating, assigning, and fulfilling shipments with these items.
   * **Service:** Used only for [service items such as assembly](/pages/fulfillment-service-items "Fulfillment Service Items").
   * **Digital**: Used for [digital items](/pages/fulfillment-method-types#digital-item-fulfillment "Fulfillment Method Types") other than gift cards or store credit, such as warranties or service fees. This does not include digital art, books, music, printable documents, or software. These items will be immediately fulfilled and captured upon order placement.
   * **Digital Credit:** Creates a [store credit](/pages/store-credit-and-gift-cards "Store Credit and Gift Cards") record assigned to the customer who placed the order. These items will be immediately fulfilled and captured upon order placement.
   * **Digital Gift Card:** Used when a customer purchases a [digital gift card](/pages/digital-gift-card-overview "Digital Gift Card Overview"). These items will be immediately fulfilled and captured upon order placement.\\

7. Click **Save**.

You can update a product or multiple products' product types at once using the [Quick Edits](/pages/quick-edits "Quick Edits") tool.
