Item Group

An Item Group is a way to classify items based on types.

Depending on the type of product, you can categorize an item under its respective field. If the product is service-oriented, assign it under the Item Group - service. If the product is used as a raw-material, assign it under the Raw Material category. In case, an item is used only in trading, you can categorize it under an Item Group called Trading.

To access the Item Group list, go to:

Home > Stock > Items and Pricing > Item Group

This is what the Item Group tree looks like: Item Group Tree
