How to Delete Categories, Subcategories, or Groups

To delete a category, subcategory or group, begin by selecting Items on the left side of the Navigation Menu, and then choose Item Library from the listings. On the Item Library page, locate the category, subcategory, or group you choose to delete and select the Actions dropdown located on the top right side of the category, subcategory, or group's name.

Next, select the delete category, subcategory or group's option from the listings. This will cause a pop-up box to appear asking if you are sure you want to delete the relevant option from the library. Select the Delete button or select the Cancel button to return to the Item Library screen.

Note:

When deleting a category, all subcategories and groups listed under that category will be deleted as well. The same rules apply when deleting a subcategory; any groups listed under a subcategory will also be deleted.

If you chose Delete on the first pop-up, a second pop-up will then appear with a warning, asking if you are sure you would like to deleted the category, subcategory, or group. It is to ensure that you are not deleting anything that shouldn't be deleted. Select Confirm to permanently delete the category, subcategory, or group or choose Cancel to return to the Item Library screen.
