Categories

The categories section is designed to help laundry service partners organize their offerings into clear, logical groupings. This structure makes it easier for customers to discover the right services quickly while also simplifying backend management and updates.

At the top right of the interface, you’ll find four essential action buttons:

  • Delete
  • Export
  • Update serial No.
  • Add new (Add Category, Add Sub-Category)

Here you can see a sorted table with the following columns like image, name, Laundry Types, sub category, serial no., status (Toggle to Block or Unblock the category), action (edit, delete, copy ID), reorder.

+Adding a Category

When “Add Category” is selected, a pop-up form appears where you can:

  • Select Laundry Type
  • Enter Category Name
  • Upload Category Image
  • Tap “Add” to save and create the new category.

+Adding a Sub-Category

When “Add Sub-Category” is selected, a separate pop-up form opens:

  • Select Category
  • Enter Sub-Category Name
  • Upload Sub-Category Image
  • Tap “Add” to save the sub-category

FAQ's

The categories section helps the admin and vendors organize all services under a structured hierarchy. Each category belongs to a specific laundry type (store type) so stores can list products or services correctly.

The hierarchy follows this order:

  • Laundry type (store type) at the top
  • Categories under each laundry type
  • Subcategories under each category (optional)
  • Products or services under categories and subcategories

When creating any laundry product or service, the platform requires both a laundry type and a category. This ensures that every listing is properly organized and displayed under the right section on the user and vendor side.

A subcategory is an optional additional layer under a category. It helps further classify services or products (for example, “Shirts” under the category “Men’s Clothing”).

You can click on the plus icon next to a category to view all its subcategories.

You can also add new subcategories, search within them, or block/activate specific subcategories.

For each category, you can:

  • Edit details
  • Delete the category
  • Copy its ID for bulk import/export
  • Change its order using serial numbers or drag-and-drop

Click on Add New, choose the laundry type it belongs to, enter the category name, and upload the category image. This will create a new category under the selected laundry type.

Yes. When adding a category, you can immediately add subcategories, or you can add them later from the subcategory section within each category.

You can manually set serial numbers and click Update Serial Numbers to sort them. You can also reorder categories using the drag-and-drop feature.

Yes. You can delete a single category, multiple selected categories, or all categories from the list if needed.

Yes. The admin can export the list of categories (and subcategories) to store locally as a backup or for documentation.

Assigning categories ensures that vendors can only list services under allowed types. This keeps the platform organized and prevents incorrect listings.
