Reporting category - appears to conflict with Category on bulk import/update

[fireworksking]

I noticed Reporting Category is a new field.   

I updated "Category" column in the inventory export file then imported it to update all my items.   Now all my items belong to BOTH old and new category (2 categories selected) and the new category value was set as value for "Reporting Category" which I hadn't seen until now, and there is no column in inventory export file for it.  

How do I update Category and Reporting Category separately?

Hello @fireworksking and welcome to the Seller Community

For this one, I will go ahead and recommend you reach out to our Support Team. They will be able to look into this in real time along with your export file to pinpoint what might be missing here and get you squared away.

I'll contact support tomorrow when they are available. 

Is there any history of adding Reporting Category or allowing an item to belong to more than 1 Category?  We have discounts setup based on category and never anticipated an item in more than 1.  I know this changed in the last 6 months.
