Use this option to define account groups. Account groups are used to organize related accounts at the bill source level to aid in entering and applying account payments. You can also define demographics based on account groups.
Note: Account groups are similar to account classes, but are assigned to accounts at the bill source level (i.e., account billing specifics), rather than the account level, during account setup or account activation. The account group can be viewed as a Specifics option when viewing account information in Route Service.
In character Circulation, select Distribution | Account Setup | Account Group to display the Account Group Setup screen.
