Creating and Assigning Colors to Categories

The Manage Categories screen displays a list of all the Categories with their names and corresponding colors. This screen allows you to add, delete, label and color Categories. If your User Group has the permission to Modify Categories, you will be able to create and assign colors to Categories.

Note:

A limited number of default Categories is included upon initial installation of Tyler’s Versatrans e-Link. (for example, the “Notes” Category is provided by default).
