Using the Category Specific Attributes feature, you can capture the details of a record based on its categorization. Consider, you have the PRODUCTS repository and the products listed in the repository belong to Food and Beverages industry.

The products are of various types, such as Bakery, Dairy, Cereals and Food Grains, Dry Fruits and Nuts, and so on. Consider that the common attributes for all kinds of these products are Stock Keeping Unit (SKU) and price.
