Can accessories be organized into categories?

Yes! Accessories can be organized into categories (and so can kits!). This is ideal if you have many different types of accessories and you want to group together similar types. In Reftab, you can click on these categories to filter and display only the accessories belonging to the selected category. This feature enhances the organization of your inventory, making navigation easier for you.

Step 1) Click “Accessories” > “Custom Categories

That’s it! Now your accessories can be grouped by category. You can click the “All Accessories” button at the top to view all accessories in one table. Also note this same procedure can be done for kits as well.

As of writing this article there isn’t a method to bulk change multiple accessories into a category, this process will need to be done manually for each accessory. However, our team will introduce bulk updates in a future update.
