Categories Settings

Last updated on Jun 10, 2025

Categories allow you to organize materials, products, and resources into a logical structure. You can create, edit, delete categories, and change their display order.

Category Types

The system has three main category types:

  • Materials

  • Products

  • Resources

These category types don't overlap. You cannot assign a product to a material category and vice versa.

How to Edit Categories

  1. Go to the Settings section

  2. Scroll down to the “Categories” block

  3. Click the “Edit” button at the bottom of the screen

Creating a New Category

  1. In the corresponding section (Materials, Products, or Resources), click the “Add” button

  2. Enter the name for the new category

  3. Save the category

Editing a Category

  1. Click the pencil icon (✏️) next to the category name

  2. Make the necessary changes

  3. Save the changes

Changing Category Color

Click on the category name to change its color. This helps visually distinguish categories in the interface.

Changing Category Order

You can drag categories to reorder them. Category order affects how they appear in your materials and products lists.

  1. Hover over the dots icon (⋮⋮) to the left of the category name

  2. Hold down the left mouse button and drag the category to the desired position

  3. Release the mouse button

Deleting a Category

  1. Click the cross icon (❌) next to the category name

  2. Confirm deletion in the dialog that appears

Important: Some categories cannot be deleted if they are used in storage location settings. In this case, the system will show the message: “This category cannot be deleted because it is used in storage location settings.”

When deleting a category, the associated items (materials, products, resources) will not be deleted.
