Catalog Configuration

Here you configure which products guests can see and order in the eesy app.

Categories

In the guest app, products are organized in categories. Unlike nested folders in eesy Manager, categories cannot be nested.

2. Enter a title (e.g., "Beverages")
3. Choose an emoji as symbol
4. The category is created

Edit Category

Sort Categories

The order of categories determines how they appear in the app:

1. Drag a category via drag-and-drop
2. Drop it at the desired position

Assign Products

Add Product to Category

Each product can be assigned to one, none, or multiple categories:

Assignment	Visibility
No category	Only visible to servers
One category	Visible in that category
Multiple categories	Visible in all assigned categories

How to assign:

1. Select a product from the list
2. Tap Categories
3. Enable the desired categories
4. Save

View Products in Category

1. Select a category
2. All assigned products are shown
3. Sort products via drag-and-drop

Difference from Folders

Feature	Folders (Servers)	Categories (Guests)
Nesting	Yes (multi-level)	No (flat)
Product Assignment	Exactly one folder	Multiple categories possible

Usage	Internal organization	Guest navigation

Tips

• Clear categories: Not too many categories (5-10 is ideal)
• Distinct names: Guests should immediately understand what they'll find
• Use highlights: Mark recommendations as highlights in the catalog
• Seasonal adjustments: Adjust categories seasonally
