Lacking any grouping
Uncategorized describes something that hasn't been assigned to a category or classification system.
Blog posts, expenses, or files may be labeled uncategorized when they don't fit existing groups or when no one has sorted them yet: The uncategorized items sat in a pile on her desk.
The word often appears as a default label in software and databases.
