Groups are user-defined numbers into which job tasks are categorized. Job tasks can be categorized into groups on estimates and invoices. Groups are sorted numerically. The group number never appears on the printed estimate or invoice; instead, the group description (such as fees or expenses) appears. Tasks are sub-totaled by group. Groups are optional. You can have many different groups, too. On job tasks, leaving the group number empty keeps the tasks from sub-totaling.
