Add Quick Category, Sub-category and Item
Add Quick CSI option allows you to add new Categories, Sub-categories and Items at an instant, instead of adding them using individual 'New' option . This option proves to reduce time consumption when large number of categories or subcategories or items have to be added. This option is available under Admin >> Helpdesk >> Category >> New >> Add Quick CSI.

To bulk add Category, Sub-Category and Item:
1. Click Add Quick CSI from the Category List window. The 'Add Quick CSI' window will be displayed with text area to enter the CSI and the preview screen to get a view of the CSI entered.
Note
- In the text area of the pop-up window, text entered with no tabs will be considered as Category.
- Text entered with single tab will be taken as Sub-category, while text entered with two tabs will be taken as Item.
