A grouping for sales data series, used to organise an account's series into sections in reporting and admin screens. A SalesDataSeries optionally belongs to one of these, so the category is purely a way of grouping series rather than anything that affects the data itself. Categories are per organisation. Deleting a category does not delete its series, it simply detaches them, so they become uncategorised rather than disappearing.
