System Categories are a generic framework to define configurable, localized lists or data types for mobile application. Some example system categories are work order types, asset types, time entry categories and line item types. The System Category Mapping REST API is used to create, update or delete system category mapping declarations. ServiceMobility uses mapping definitions at run-time to convert configurable data types from one system to another.

A system category, depending on how it designed to be used by the system, may have child activity definitions, sub categories or both. Please refer to the System Categories related page for more details.
