Recommended Destination Categories
We recommend creating the following categories for the user’s next articles into PAM and other dictionary required tasks.These categories are important to create because it will help to sort out the many dictionary items that a user may create. For example, all Parking Lot names will go in a category called “Parking”.
When I click on “Parking”, I would see all dictionary items related to that category.
