Product Group


Product Group is a method of grouping products based on some common characteristics or features. Product group is a prerequisite to define a product master in the application.

Each product must be assigned a group in Tagrain. It helps to categorize the product data into appropriate categories. There is no limit to the number of groups you can create in Tagrain. However, a product can be a part of only one product group. It can also describe the nature of the product. For e.g., for a furniture retailer, there can be Product Groups such as the living room, kid’s section, and so on.
