NAME

FS::pkg_category - Object methods for pkg_category records

SYNOPSIS

 use FS::pkg_category;

 $record = new FS::pkg_category \%hash;
 $record = new FS::pkg_category { 'column' => 'value' };

 $error = $record->insert;

 $error = $new_record->replace($old_record);

 $error = $record->delete;

 $error = $record->check;

DESCRIPTION

An FS::pkg_category object represents an package category. Every package class (see FS::pkg_class) has, optionally, a package category. FS::pkg_category inherits from FS::Record. The following fields are currently supported:

categorynum - primary key (assigned automatically for new package categoryes); categoryname - Text name of this package category; disabled - Disabled flag, empty or 'Y'

METHODS

delete

replace OLD_RECORD

Replaces OLD_RECORD with this one in the database. If there is an error, returns the error, otherwise returns false.

check
