The idea around product mix is to restrict clients from having active loans of 
different products that the MFI doesn't want them to have at the same time.

When you create a product mix for Loan Product A, you can state what other loan 
products a client is allowed and not allowed to have at the same time as having 
an active loan of Loan Product A.  for example, the MFI might decide that if a 
client has Loan A, they can have Loan C also but not Loan B.

In Mifos then, if the client already has Loan A, but tries to take out Loan B, 
Mifos doesn't allow this.

Ryan/Emily might be able to better explain the reasoning behind wanting this.

Anita you bring up some product enhancements.  What might help is if someone 
our team gives you a quick runthrough of how to enter this in Jira, our issue 
tracking system where we track these.

Thanks
Kay
