Product categories allow you to organize your products conveniently for staff that use Venue Manager, so that they can quickly find what they are looking for when creating new bookings or searching using the bookings calendar view, bookings grid view and runsheet. This can help to increase the speed of their service to guests.
Product categories are completely different to your Reporting Categories and have no impact on any of your reporting data.
Navigate to:
Creating a new Product Category
- In Venue Manager click Products > Categories.
- If you can't see the Categories option submit a request asking our support team to enable this feature for you.
- Click + Create category.
- Name your Product Category.
- Add all the relevant products that you want to fall into this Product Category.
Note - ROLLER will show you exactly how many products you have created in your account and how many are still unassigned. It's not a requirement that all products have to be assigned to a Product Category. You can also add the same product to multiple Product Categories if required.
Adding products to a Category
- In Venue Manager click Products > Categories.
- Simply click on which Product Category you want to edit and a panel will appear on the right side of your screen giving you the ability to edit the Category Name and add/remove Products.
- To add products click the search area and either type the name of the product or find the product by navigating the drop-down menu and click apply.
- To remove products click Clear to deselect all or find any products that have a tick next to them and click to untick and click apply.
- Click Save to finalize any changes
