Create new categories and offers

If you want to advertise tenders with edoobox, the tender tree plays a crucial role. It is used to organize and efficiently manage your offers. With the offer tree, you can create a structure that is similar to a file system. You create main categories and, if required, subcategories under which you can place your offers. This enables optimal management of your offers and simplifies targeted categorization for presentation on your website.

Before you can create an offer, you must first create a corresponding category. All categories and offers in the offer tree can be moved flexibly using drag-and-drop to adapt the structure to your current requirements.

Create a new category

Two options are available to create new categories in the edoobox account:

Option 1: Via the offer tree

Navigate to the offer tree in your edoobox account.
Right-click on the account abbreviation A or an existing category in the offer tree to which you want to assign the new category.
Select the "Add category" option from the context menu.
Enter the name for the new category and confirm the creation with "Add". Please only use each name once for your categories, otherwise display errors may occur.

The newly created category is now displayed in the offer tree.
