Categories help to sort products.
In Products, you can see the Category column that shows to which categories products belong and lets you sort and filter by categories.
To locate Categories, go to Categories from the main menu.
You can see the categories created for your organization. Categories can have subcategories.
You can switch between the List view and Tree view:
The List view shows all the categories in a list. You can open each category to see the attributes, or you can edit or delete a category.
The Tree view shows the categories by their parent categories. You can select a category to edit it.
Create a category
To create a new category:
Select the CREATE CATEGORY button in the top right corner of the page. A sidebar opens where you can either import a list of categories or create a new category by entering the information in the fields.
If you want to import the categories from your computer:
Select Upload and choose the necessary file.
If you want to create a new category:
In Name, enter the category name.
In Parent, select the main category this category should belong to. Leave this field empty to make the category the main one.
Select Save.
View the category attributes
You can expand a category to see all its attributes. The product belonging to a certain category inherits its attributes. Attributes are assigned to a category automatically, but in the future, the import function can be used to import categories with pre-assigned attributes via the upload of a CSV file.
INFO: The templates contain the attributes necessary to the certain retailers.
