BullseyeCategories
Use this section to create categories in your account. If this section is omitted, the existing category structure will not be affected.
You can also create a nested category structure by associating top level categories to sub categories. To have nested categories, top level categories must have a ThirdPartyId value. Category names at the top level or within a sub category level must be unique. All ThirdPartyId values must be unique throughout all levels. Categories which do not have a ParentThirdPartyId are considered Top Level categories. All ParentThirdPartyId values must equate to another category's ThirdPartyId.
