Campaign categories are divisions that enable you to organize your campaigns. Traditionally, campaign categories are created before you create campaigns, but you can always manage your campaign categories in the Category Maintenance dialog box.
The value displayed in the Number of Categories column is a read-only indicator of how many campaigns are located in this category in the Campaign Setup & Maintenance dialog box.
