It’s worth noting that you view the catalog structure for one store at a time, which you can switch using the store picker dropdown. ![catalog_builder](https://ucommerce.net/hubfs/catalog_builder.avif) Using the catalog builder, you can navigate to find a specific category or create new catalogs and categories. ℹ️ The first level block is always a catalog, and any subsequent levels are considered categories. ## **More about the categories** Category levels are configured per catalog and can be as wide and deep as you wish. In each category, you have the ability to create subcategories and place products. The same product can be configured in multiple categories, catalogs, and stores without copying the product. You simply add another reference between the product and the category in question. ## **Price groups** Catalogs further control available price lists or price groups. You can also set allowed price groups for the catalog, enabling switching between multiple price groups for individual customers. Examples of this would be easily enabling multi-currency scenarios, e.g. a price group per currency you wish to support. Or differentiated pricing scenarios by enabling multiple price groups with the same currency, but with the price overridden on a per-product basis. ![pricegroups](https://ucommerce.net/hs-fs/hubfs/Backoffice/pricegroups.png?width=2000&height=3401&name=pricegroups.png) ![pricegroups_2-2](https://ucommerce.net/hubfs/pricegroups_2-2.avif) ![avatar](https://ucommerce.net/hs-fs/hubfs/masd.jpeg?width=290&name=masd.jpeg) #### [Mads Bjernemose Nielsen](https://ucommerce.net/news/author/mads-bjernemose-nielsen) Backend developer at Ucommerce [mailto:mads.bjernemose.nielsen@ucommerce.net](mailto:mads.bjernemose.nielsen@ucommerce.net) ## More Knowledge Base Articles All Knowledge Base Articles ### [Mads Bjernemose NielsenFebruary 20252 min read Knowledge Base: Getting Started with Campaigns and Promotions A campaign is a collection of promotions that help manage discounts and offers.
