Definition

Client categories are analogous to roles for contacts. The categories to which an organization belongs are visible in the organization's profile.

Each Category has the following settings:

  • Category Name - The unique name of the Category.
  • Description - Narrative description of the Category.
  • Category Formula - See Category Formula page for instructions.
  • Enable Address Geocoding - See Geocoding for details.
  • Role Permissions
  • View Organizations
  • Modify Organizations
  • List of Current Organizations - List of organizations currently in this Category. Organizations can be added or removed from this Category from this list.

Variables

The company category list can be retrieved from the UTA Level 1 using variables.

Use @client.categoryids@ to return a list of category IDs - comma delimited - note the leading comma - e.g. ",1234,555,666,"

Use @client.categories@ to return a list of category names - comma delimited e.g. "Agency,Marketing,Good client"

This is useful if you wish to use a category to dynamically drive a set of custom fields displayed to the user.
