Categories

Categories are your main filing system. Use them for big buckets like "Utilities" or "Insurance". Paperarchive can suggest categories, and you can always override them.

Use categories for stable structure, and tags for flexible labels.

Create a category

1. Go to Categories.
2. Click New category.
3. Name it and save.

You will see the document count next to each category.

Subcategories (one level)

You can add subcategories under a top level category. Nested levels deeper than one are not supported. This keeps navigation fast and clean.

Edit and organize

• Rename: change the label.
• Move: move a category under another (when allowed).
• Merge: combine multiple categories into one.

Note: categories with children may have move restrictions.

Trash and restore

Deleted categories go to Trash for 30 days. You can restore or delete permanently.
