Updating Category Permissions
Category permissions are automatically set to Allow for products that are added from the category tree to a shared catalog. You can later adjust the permissions, or create additional rules, as needed.
When the shared catalog B2B feature is enabled in the configuration, each category permission for the catalog is set to Deny for all customer groups automatically. Additionally, when a new category is created, it has the Deny category permissions by default to prevent showing that category on the storefront site before assignment to the shared catalog.
