Search groups

In most catalogues the products are divided into logical groups. for example all the products that are of the same type, such as all worktops, are placed in the same group. The groups are used to make it easier for you to search for products in Winner.

If the catalogue contains a search group called Base unit, then only the products that belong to this group are shown in the window when you select this search group.
