Item Sub Group
An item sub-group: a code, a name and the item group it belongs to.
What it is for
On the item in a company, Item Sub Group offers only the sub-groups of the item group chosen. The screen is not placed on any menu; its list is on the Item menu. Create Service Object, Object Group and Object Category are recorded with the sub-group.
