Merging Categories or Subcategories
When merging one or more categories or subcategories into another category or subcategory (the target), all the subcategories, templates, and content items (documents, assessments, and campaigns) assigned to the categories/subcategories to be merged will be reassigned to the target category/subcategory. The categories/subcategories to be merged will then be deleted, with the target category/subcategory remaining.
Important: A category/subcategory that is merged into another is not placed in the Archive and can only be restored by restoring a backup database.
