How to Delete a Category

If you no longer need a category -- maybe you stopped offering certain products or want to tidy up your menu -- you can remove it in a few clicks. There are two ways to delete a category.

Option 1: Delete from the Category List

Option 2: Delete from the Category Details

1. Open the menu -- Click the sidebar menu icon to open navigation.
2. Go to Categories -- Select Categories from the menu list.
3. Choose a category -- Click the category you want to delete (for example, "Drinks").
4. Delete -- Click the trash bin icon at the bottom of the page.
5. Confirm -- A confirmation prompt appears. Click Yes or Confirm to finish.

What Happens When You Delete a Category

• The category is removed from your POS and menus right away.
• Products or services in that category are not deleted. They simply lose their category grouping.
• You can always create a new category later if needed.

Tips

• Deletion is permanent -- double-check before you confirm.
• If you only want to hide a category temporarily, make it inactive instead of deleting it.
• Remove unused categories regularly to keep your catalog organized.
