Item Groups

Effective inventory management requires proper categorization of products to streamline reporting, analysis, and operational efficiency. Item Groups help classify similar products, such as acids, solvents, boxes, and bottles, while Item Group Groups provide a higher-level classification by grouping multiple item groups. This hierarchical structure improves organization and simplifies data management.
