I see that the following Product Catalog Category types exist in OfBiz but haven't been able to locate any usage of these catalog category type. So I'm wondering if I'm missing something or is just they haven't not been implemented as yet.
PCCT_WHATS_NEW - What's New PCCT_BEST_SELL - Best Seller PCCT_MOST_POPULAR - Most Popular Rgds Sanjeev

These are the special types categories for catalog. If you see the
PCCT_PROMOTIONS type you will get an idea how to use these types as per your requirement. There is no example set for these. The basic purpose of these categories to group the other categories and/or products to render in specific section of site pages. You can see the code support exists for all these category in CatalogWorker.java. Also please note that, all these category set only one for a specific catalog, please see the ProdCatalogCategory.description field, which stated that which type should setup how many times for a catalog.

Appreciate the response Rishi.
So if i understand this correctly, all these categories have to be populated manually and there is no inbuilt OFBiz logic to populate the categories with best selling products, most popular products etc ? Also is there a specific productCategoryTypeId that should be used while creating category with productCategoryId="WK_WhatsNew" or WK_MostPopular

Sanjeev,
Now I better understand your requirement, you want to add the products in Most Popular and Best selling on the basis of some calculation. 'ProductCalculatedInfo' is the entity which captures this kind of information and every time re-calculated the totalQuantityOrdered totalTimesViewed. Each time when user on front store view the product detail page it updates the totalTimesViewed field and if he place order for any product then totalQuantityOrdered field updated. So data is there, you just need to add logic (probably) seca on this to add products under your specified categories. Here is the probable mapping of the fileds; - Most Popular -> totalTimesViewed - Best selling -> totalQuantityOrdered For whats new you can add eca on Product entity on create operation.
