Viewing Categories in List View vs Hierarchy View

The difference between List View and Hierarchy View for categories in WIZniche POS and when to use each.

The Categories section of the Item Library offers two views to help you manage your category structure depending on how you prefer to work.


List View

List View shows all categories in a flat table, sorted alphabetically. Each row shows the category name and its parent category (if applicable). This view is best for:

  • Quickly scanning and editing individual categories

  • Searching for a specific category by name

  • Managing a large number of categories efficiently


Hierarchy View

Hierarchy View displays categories in a tree structure — parent categories are shown with their child categories nested underneath. This view is best for:

  • Understanding how your category structure is organised visually

  • Checking which categories are correctly nested under parents

  • Planning structural changes to your catalogue organisation


Switching Between Views

Toggle between views using the List and Hierarchy view buttons at the top of the Categories section. Your last selected view is remembered between sessions.
