For Web Commerce Level 2 sites, use drill categories, or drill downs, to organize the products you offer for sale on your web site. Your web site users can then browse and order products using the drill categories. You need the PRODUCT.CAT.MAINT authorization key to create drill categories and subcategories.
You can define two drill category types:
Company-wide drill categories
Customer-specific drill categories
Use drill categories to offer different sets of products to different customer types.

After a customer logs in, the company-wide categories display, unless customer-specific categories are defined.
