This view displays the items belonging to the second level of a hierarchy of categories. Thus the top-level categories (first-level) are displayed and can be selected in the left pane, the second-level categories (or subcategories) are displayed and can be selected in the top pane, and then the items of the subcategories are displayed in the central panel. The items created in the root of the hierarchy of categories are not shown in this view, nor the items belonging to a third-level categories or more nested levels. Items created in top-level categories (first-level) are shown in the central panel (if there are no subcategories in the category selected), or in a virtual subcategory called "Unclassified items".

Below are shown and explained each of the panels and sections of this view:
