Assigning a Single Item to Multiple Categories/Sub-Categories

Assigning a Single Item to Multiple Categories/Sub-Categories

We need the ability to assign the same item to multiple categories and sub-categories. For example, the item Red Bean Salad should be listed under Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner without needing to create separate versions of the same item.

We’ve reviewed the current capabilities and understand from the response received that this functionality is not currently supported. The suggested workaround involves duplicating the item with slight name variations (e.g., Red Bean Salad - Breakfast, Red Bean Salad BF, etc.) and assigning each to the respective category. However, this approach is not ideal as it can create unnecessary redundancy and confusion.

This is a specific request from our client, and we’d like to formally submit it as a feature enhancement. The ability to assign a single item to multiple categories/sub-categories would significantly improve usability and efficiency in item management.

Please consider this request for future development.
