A business category is just a named bucket for you to group and re-group your business columns in. They can mimic your business table names, or be named after your favorite rock stars. Categories do not have metadata associated with them, have no tie back to any business table (although our Editor will give you the impression this relationship exists - don't be fooled. ), and have the simple purpose of allowing you to bucket the business columns in your model as intuitively as possibly for your data consumers.

Today, categories are a single level entity. We hope in the future to support nested categories.

Building a business view consists of creating your categories, then moving your business columns from the business tables into the categories. You can move columns from different business tables into the same category, and even duplicate the same business column into two different categories.
