BLAZE ECOM: Adding Sub Categories to your menu

Sub-Categories are now available on BLAZE ECOM! Follow this guide on how to manage them!

Sub Categories can now be added to parent categories on your ECOM Menu to allow a more refined shopping experience for those looking for specific product types within your menu.

To add a sub category in your product categories you will need to log in to BLAZE POS and complete the following steps: 

In ECOM Mission Control navigate to Settings > Store Configuration > Under Permissions Toggle Enable Subcategories 






Navigate to Products > Company Categories > Select A Category > Scroll Down to Sub Category Field > Add a Sub Category Name > Click Add > Save 

Note: Sub category names must be unique - BLAZE POS will not allow for duplicate                 sub category names. 








Once your Sub Category is added you can then click the drop down arrow to add things like a Low Inventory Threshold and Sub Category Product Type. 



 The next step is assigning product to your newly configured sub category:

 Navigate to Products > Company Products > Select Product you want to add to your new Sub     Category 





Click into to the Category drop down menu 





Select the Sub Category that you want to place the product under

Note: A Sub Category can be identified easily by the ">" symbol in front of the name




Don't forget to click save





On the next POS/ECOM MC Sync you will see your Sub Category populated in Mission Control and on your ECOM Menu!

Here is an article that explains how to manually sync BLAZE POS and BLAZE ECOM:
