Hierarchical Structures
These screens allows you to create and maintain Hierarchical Structures which can be used to organise things like Items and Descriptors in a more structured format.
This is useful, for example, when organising a Sales Catalog of Items and Descriptors in the Freeway Mobility app where users can look for items in a more structured way.
