Navigating to Product Categories

What are Product Categories?

Product Categories is a module used to classify products into generic groups based on specific shared attributes. Categories are configurable in the System and they can number in the hundreds. They are following a hierarchical tree structure.

• Navigate to Product Categories and explore existing entries via the Summary page.  Product 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 entry of your interest to open a modal with the related details. Select an existing Product 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 Product Category (ADD) or delete an existing one (REMOVE)
• Use EXPAND ALL  to view 'parents' and 'children' and COLLAPSE ALL to only view 'parents'.
