How to Manually Assign Categories

Once Categories have been created in the Admin, you can start assigning across your catalogue. If you are unable to assign a Category, it means Category Mapping is switched on for your account.

 

In the Admin, categories are marked with colour-coding to assist you with an overview of:

a) how many tracks are assigned to a category

b) what regions they are assigned to.

Red= "No tracks assigned"
Orange ="Track missing on some category tree branches"
Blue= "Tracks assigned to all category tree branches but missing on one or more regions"
Green= "Tracks assigned to all category tree branches for all regions"

Assigning can be done in 3 areas:

Edit Track

Track Manager

The track manager allows you to search through your entire account and assign categories to tracks. 

Advanced Import

The Advanced Import function allows you to update metadata for an entire label or individual album. Here you can manage categories and bulk apply changes. 

See how Categories are supplemented in the template here.
