📦 Understanding Item Group

🧩 What is Item Group?

An Item Group is a way to categorise items within the WMS based on shared characteristics. This grouping helps improve operational efficiency and makes it easier to apply rules and workflows across similar items.

For example, you might group items by physical size:

• Large Items

• Medium Items

• Small Items

Or group by product type, such as:

• Electronics

• Apparel

• Perishables

• Fragile Goods

Using Item Groups allows you to tailor allocation, picking strategies, and inventory segmentation based on common item features.

🔍 Accessing Item Group

• Open the Navigation menu, type Item Group in the search bar, and select it.

• Alternatively, find it via:
  Configuration > Functional Area Setup > Inventory Control Setup > Item Group

You can also access and update an Item Group directly when editing an individual Item. By default, new items are often assigned to the "default" Item Group.
