    1. You need to select Category first before you will be able to select a subcategory. Meanwhile, ensure you have created both the category & subcategory, refer to the documentation file on how to do this.

    2. Have you done any modification on your system?

    Hello,

    You need to add categories and subcategories (select parent category to add subcategory). Once you have categories and subcategory, system will load subcategories on add product page once you select the category.

    I am not sure why you having wrong balance amount? Did you modify any code? Please test it on live demo and let me know the steps to reproduce issue on demo.

    No. SMA don't have sync. If install on live server then you will need internet to access.

    Thank you

    **[Enyinnaya Gift](/u/giftedhands4real)** 1. the documentation does not show how to add "sub categories"
    2. I have not modified anything on the system, be it the code.

    Thanks

    Hello,

    If you don't select `parent category`, you will add main `category`. if you select the `parent category`, you will be adding `subcategory` So if any category has parent category that will be consider as subcategory.

    Thank you

    Hi,

    The sub-category issue is solved. Thanks.

    I still have only one issue left, Under POS sales, the system is displaying the wrong balance even though the grand total is fully paid. what could be the problem

    Hello,

    If I know or guess the reason, I have already told you the solution. I did ask you to let me know the step to reproduce the issue on live demo so that I can check and suggest.

    Thank you

    **[Mian Saleem](/u/saleem)** Go to POS, make a sale, make a payment, submit the payment. currently in my system, if the total amount of the sale is may 500, and the customer clears the amount to zero, the system doesn't display a zero balance. If a customer partially pays the sale total, it still displays a wrong due amount.

    See attached. this is under the POS sales list. compare the "Grand total, paid, and Balance" in the screenshot.
