How Do I Edit Category Names?
Section titled “How Do I Edit Category Names?”If you would like to edit category names, just click “Edit” next to that category. Please note that if you edit a category name, it will change that category name on all of your existing orders. For this reason, it is not recommended to make changes to a category name once you have already used that category on an order.
For example, if your shop used to do DTG, but switches over to DTF, you wouldn’t want to change the name of the category. This would change all of your old DTG orders to DTG causing all of your past orders to be inaccurate.
Instead, we recommend creating a new category for your DTF orders.
If you no longer do DTG, and want to remove that as an option when creating an order, you can Archive the DTG category.
How Do I Archive Categories?
Section titled “How Do I Archive Categories?”To Archive a Category, just click “Archive” next to that category. When you Archive a category, it will no longer appear as an option on new invoices, but the category will still appear on older invoices.
If you ever want to use that category in the future, just click restore. Once, you restore a category, you will be able to select it on any orders.
Can I Permanently Delete Categories?
Section titled “Can I Permanently Delete Categories?”Yes, you can permanently delete categories in DecoGro if the category has not been used in any orders.
To delete a category, it must first be archived, then click “Delete” next to that category.
You cannot delete categories which are being used on orders.
