What are Job Categories?
Job Categories is a module used to create Job categories which are used to classify Jobs into generic groups based on specific similar attributes.
- Navigate to Job Categories and explore existing records via the Summary page. Job Categories follow a hierarchical structure, with 'parent' rows linked to multiple 'children' rows directly beneath them.
- Click on the link (name or number) of the record of your interest to open a modal with the related details. Select an existing Category for the parent to make the specific Category a child or erase the parent name to make the Category a parent itself.
- Either SAVE the changes or cancel (X) and go back to the Summary page.
- Create a new (ADD) or delete an existing one (REMOVE)
- Use EXPAND ALL to view parents and children and COLLAPSE ALL to only view parents.
