# Accounting groups in POS

## How to Create and Use Product Groups

This article explains how to create and use \*\*product groups\*\* in the point-of-sale (POS) system to make sales accounting easier and more organized.

## Creating a New Product Group

Follow these simple steps to create a product group:

1.  Go to the "Product Catalog" menu and select "Product Groups".
2.  Click on the "New Product Group" button.
3.  Fill in the required fields:
    -   **Name:** Give the product group a descriptive name.
    -   **Accounting Account:** Link the product group to the correct accounting account.
    -   **SAF-T "basic ID":** Select the correct type of item being sold, according to the standard.

## Linking Products to Product Groups

Every single product in the product catalog must be linked to a product group. You have two options to link the products:

### Directly on the Product

1.  Navigate to Products > Products to find the product you want to edit.
2.  Click on Edit and select the correct product group from the drop-down list.
3.  Save the changes by pressing "Update Product".

### Via Bulk Edit

1.  Navigate to Products > Bulk Edit.
2.  Filter to find the products you want to change and select them.
3.  Choose the action "Change Product Group".
4.  Confirm and let the magic happen!

## Product Groups in Reports

When you generate reports from the POS system, your sales will be grouped by product group. The product groups are shown as a convenient summary at the bottom of the Z-report, giving you a better overview of your sales data.
