  • To create a Top-Level or Parent Category - select the Top Level option.

    • For example, if you wanted to add a subcategory named Structured Abrasives and have it appear under the Abrasives top-level category, you would simply select the Abrasives top-level category from the dropdown menu (see screenshot below).
