    _description = "Categories for POS"


    category_name = fields.Char(string='Category Name', required=True)

    group_id = fields.Many2one('pos.group', widget="many2one_tags", string='Related Group')



category.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<odoo>

Hello Smithjohn45,

In the point_of_sale base Odoo module there is already pos. category model is declared so in your case you have 2 option

1. Rename your model name (don't use pos. category) 

2. Inherit pos. category and add your custom field

Thanks...
