Locked rows are managed by pointup.

Create a Category

Choose Add Category and give it a short name. By default it appears at every location; turn that off and pick at least one location to list it only there while it is empty. Each product's own locations decide where it is sold, so a category always appears wherever its products are available, at checkout and in the online store.
