All contacts in the system can be organized in categories. The assignment of a contact record to a category can be done manually. In many cases you will also see that contact records will be assigned automatically to a category. This happens for instance while creating a new crew records in the Crewing module or while choosing a contact record as a supplier for a purchase order in the Purchasing module. Some of these automatically assigned categories are so called system categories (like in the given example for a crew member that will be assigned to category "Crew"). Usually these system categories cannot be modified by the user since the categories are also used for the internal assignment of contact data to the single modules in the ZeeBORN system.
