Steps to follow

  1. Select New category (Nouvelle catégorie) and enter its name. Add the Arabic name and description when needed.
  2. To create a subcategory, select a parent category. The hierarchy supports at most two levels.
  3. Enable Options category only when its products should appear as included options or paid extras. Also check the preparation time.
  4. Add a clear image and scroll through the form to check colour, active status, till visibility, online visibility and kitchen printing.
  5. Save when the fields are valid, then search for the category and check its statuses. Cancel (Annuler) exits without creating a category.

What to remember

Till and online visibility are independent settings. Check both before offering products from this category to your customers.
