Remarks

A Category can be used for multiple purposes in the Marketing system. Associated with each Category is a list of the profile definition names that expressions in the category can depend on. The category is also used as a scope in the AzMan role-based security. The maximum length of a Category name is 30 characters. When setting this property, leading and trailing whitespace is removed. In the Marketing system, an expression is required to belong to only a single category.
