Introduction To Group 2’s

Group 2 is a secondary grouping structure for PLU’s and is optional. Group2’s are not a part of the main group/group hierarchy and offer more than just reporting in terms of functionality. Including the ability to Trigger Multibuys based on their group2 setting. Ideal for leaving the original grouping infrastructure intact, but allowing items to be moved to another group 2 for the purpose of promotions.
