For Web Commerce Level 2 sites, use drill categories, or drill downs, to organize the products you offer for sale on your web site. Use WOE Drill Down Maintenance to create company-wide and customer-specific drill categories of products. How you access the screen determines whether you create a company or customer category. After the screen is open, you use similar procedures to create drill categories and subcategories.
Note: Drill categories are not branch specific. Therefore, product families used in drill categories use the family with the "All" branch. If you change a family's values that is used in a drill category, you must rebuild the family and then rebuild the drill category.
