Deleting a Category from a Catalog
You use the Catalog Editor module to delete a category from a catalog. When you delete a category from a catalog, any category that is associated with it, by either relationship or hierarchy, is affected. If this category is associated with products through category pricing, those products will be affected when you delete the category. For example, if you want to remove a category called "Just $5" and you have 15 CDs that use this category as their pricing category, these CDs will revert to the price that you assigned to them at the product level once the category is deleted.
