The Component Categories section allows you to edit and or create new a Component Category for your Virtual Office system. We include several commonly used default categories in the initial setup to meet the needs of most of our clients. This function is primarily used for ingredient components. This will help categorize the ingredient components when they are displayed on a quote. For instance, notice the Dietary Supplement Category in our example image above. Also notice that the Active column is set to Yes. This means that ingredients within this category are Active ingredients. When considering printing supplement facts – the active ingredients are displayed in the top portion of the facts panel with amounts and daily allowance where as the non-active ingredients will be listed, textually, in the lower Other Ingredients section.
Upon entering this page you will be faced with a grid that displays all of the currently created Component Categories in your system. These entries can be sorted by clicking the column titles, using the search function or filtering by additional options. For more information on Grid Sorting click here.
