General Information
Product groups are used to organize your products into categories, making them easier to manage. These groups can be arranged in hierarchies with parent and sub-groups—for example, a parent group called “Training Subscriptions” with sub-groups “Prepaid” and “Direct Debit”.
Create a Product Group
Go to Configuration → Products → Product Groups, then click +.
Give the product group a name.
Choose whether the product group should appear in the cash register menu (for the group to be displayed, it must also contain at least one product that’s set to appear in the cash register menu).
If the group should be a sub-group of another group, select it under Sub-group of.
Set the color for the product group if you want it to be distinguished in the cash register.
Click OK.
Sub-group
Sub-groups can be used for any product type, and you can even create sub-groups of sub-groups. There is no limit to how many sub-groups a product group can have, nor to how many hierarchical levels can exist.
Selecting a Product Group for a Product
Go to Products > Products.
Search for the product you want to modify, select it, and click Change rows.
Select “Product group” and choose the product group you want to add to this product.
