I would like to try this option, but I found no info about how to create CSV. 
How to create categories and nested subcategories via CSV?

Hi,
This function allows you to import sub-categories of specific category into Edocman system.
You just need to prepare a csv file with 3 columns
- Category title
- Owner User ID
- Access (you can leave this column empty)
Thanks
Dam

Thank you very much Dam.

The solution was:
eDocman Configuration -> Tab: General
At the end, find "CSV Separator" and set it to ;

The Owner ID field can be left blank
