Departments and categories

Department is the primary classification of items in the merchandise hierarchy, followed by categories.  Departments and categories facilitate ease of reporting, ordering, pricing etc.

From this section of Fred Office Plus departments and categories can be added and managed (including Price Guides). 

You can only remove a department and/ or category provided no items are allocated to them.

When would I use it?

  • Create a new department and/or category.
  • Update an existing department or category (description, AppCAT matching etc).
  • Create or update Price Guides.
