Assigning Products to Groups

Assigning items to groups enables you to apply a commission category to multiple items at one time. For example, to apply a commission category to Transitions lenses, you could assign your Transitions lens products to the Transitions item group and apply the commission category to the entire group. To change the commission category, you need to change it only once for the group rather than for the individual products.

  • Item groups are also used by productivity reports and insurance schedules. Adding or removing items for an item group can affect these areas.
  • To view the different item groups, select Product, select Item Groups, and then select an Item Type.
  • In addition to item groups, you can set up commission categories for packages and individual products.

To assign products to groups

  3. Click the item number or style ID for a product that you want to assign to an item group.
  4. From the Item Group drop-down list, select the group.
