Part groups

Group parts for pricing, filtering, and catalog operations.

PartGrid part groups let teams organize related parts manually or with dynamic rules, so they can filter catalogs, target pricing rules, and manage parts in bulk without rebuilding the same lists again and again.

Large catalogs need reusable segments

A flat parts list does not scale.

Teams need reusable subsets of parts for pricing, review, imports, catalog cleanup, dealer workflows, and bulk operations. Without part groups, those subsets often live in spreadsheets, temporary filters, or one-off exports.

Search filters are temporary and need to be rebuilt.

Spreadsheets become disconnected from the live catalog.

Pricing rules become too broad when they cannot target the right subset.

Imported and manually created parts often need separate review paths.

Large catalogs need repeatable operational segmentation.

Manual or dynamic

Choose manual control or dynamic rules.

Use exact membership when the team needs control. Use dynamic rules when the group should follow part data as the catalog changes.

Manual groups

Manually assign selected parts to a group when exact membership matters, when a list is curated by a team, or when parts do not follow a clean rule.

Dynamic groups

Dynamic groups use configured conditions to determine which parts match. They are useful when membership should update based on part data such as number, status, text, source, or price conditions.

Dynamic conditions

Build groups from the data already in your catalog.

Dynamic groups can match parts using configured rules. This helps teams create reusable segments without manually maintaining every membership.

Reusable segment

Dynamic membership follows current part data, so the group can change as parts are updated.

Pricing rules

Target pricing rules to the right parts.

Part groups can target pricing rules in collection and dealer-collection workflows. Instead of applying a rule to every part, teams can apply pricing logic to a specific group of parts.

Rule target

Dealer collection pricing

Apply a markup, discount, minimum, or rounding rule to a selected part group where configured.

Make bulk work easier to target.

Manual groups can be populated through bulk assignment. Dynamic groups can define reusable segments that update as matching part data changes.

Avoid confusion

Groups are for operations. Categories and collections are for structure and publishing.

PartGrid supports multiple ways to organize catalog content. Part groups answer a different question than categories or collections.

Part groups

Which parts should this rule, filter, or operation target?

Categories

Where does this machine, assembly, or schematic belong?

Collections

Which diagrams and parts should this audience or channel receive?

Use cases

Where part groups help.

Part groups become useful when teams need the same operational subset again and again.

Targeted pricing

Apply pricing rules only to selected groups of parts instead of the full catalog.

Dealer pricing

Use OEM-owned part groups as targets for dealer collection pricing logic where configured.

Import review

Group parts by source or creation path for review, cleanup, and operational follow-up.

Missing price management

Create dynamic groups for parts with missing or existing prices in a currency.

Category-based operations

Use groups alongside catalog categories when a reusable operational segment is needed.

Bulk assignment

Assign selected parts to manual groups during cleanup, review, or catalog preparation.

Implementation note

Designed for catalog operations, not duplicate part records.

Part groups define reusable subsets inside the same company catalog. Manual groups store explicit memberships. Dynamic groups calculate membership from current part data and rule conditions.

When should we use a manual group instead of a dynamic group?+
Use a manual group when the exact membership is curated, reviewed, or exception-based. Use a dynamic group when membership should follow repeatable rules based on part data.
Can part groups help us apply pricing rules more precisely?+
Yes. Part groups can be used as pricing-rule targets so teams can apply pricing logic to a selected subset of parts rather than the full catalog.
Can dealer pricing use part groups?+
Yes, where configured. Dealer collection pricing can target part groups, which helps apply dealer-specific pricing logic to selected subsets of OEM parts.
Can groups help with missing-price cleanup?+
Yes. Dynamic groups can be useful for price-review workflows, such as grouping parts with missing or existing prices in a specific currency where configured.
Can we use groups to manage imported or manually created parts?+
Yes. Teams can create reusable groups around source, creation path, status, naming patterns, or other configured fields to support review and cleanup workflows.
Can selected parts be added to a group in bulk?+
Yes. Manual group membership can be managed in bulk, which helps teams build or update curated operational sets during catalog cleanup and preparation.
What happens when part data changes?+
Manual group membership stays explicit until changed. Dynamic groups calculate membership from current part data and rule conditions, so matching parts can change as the catalog changes.
How do part groups relate to categories and collections?+
Part groups are operational part segments for pricing, filtering, and bulk work. Categories structure catalog navigation. Collections package diagrams and catalog experiences for publishing or sharing.
Will part groups create duplicate part records?+
No. Part groups define reusable subsets of existing company parts. They do not duplicate the part records in your catalog.
Who usually manages part groups?+
They are typically managed by catalog, pricing, parts operations, or dealer-network teams that need repeatable control over pricing and catalog operations.
