Manage categories

Role: Company Administrator.

Categories provide a means of ‘tagging’ messages. This enables them to be grouped on websites (for example, ‘Warning’ and ‘Information’), directed to separate RSS feeds (for example, ‘Melbourne RSS’), and filtered in the workspace view (for example, search by category).

Once you’ve created a new category it’s available for users to apply to new messages or message templates.

  1. Open the Company Settings page (click administration sidebar icon > Administration sidebar > Company Settings).
  2. In the Settings pane on the left expand Categories and click Categories.
  3. Enter a name in the Category Name field.
  4. Select a colour from the colour palette.
    A preview of your nominated category name and colour is displayed above the palette.
  5. Click Save.
    The new category is added to the Edit Categories list.
