Define Catalog Hierarchy

The category hierarchy presents a hierarchical view of the catalog. Category hierarchies allow administrators to create a parent category that includes other categories, known as child categories.

When you navigate through the parent category, the child categories appear, helping you to navigate quickly to the category containing the products you need.

Creating a Category

1. Within the application, navigate to the Manage Catalog Category Hierarchy task from the Manage Catalogs page.

2. Click on an existing category row, such as Office Furniture, for example.

3. Click Create.

4. Enter the name of your category in the Category Name field.

5. Enter a description of the category in the Description field.

6. Click Save and Close.

7. Repeat these steps to create additional categories.
