Create, update, and remove flexible device groups for operational work.
Use Manage groups to create, update, and remove device groups.
Groups help you organize devices outside the hierarchy tree.
Use groups when devices should stay in their current hierarchy placement but still need to be collected for work.
Common uses include:
bulk operational tasks
cross-hierarchy reporting sets
short-term working collections
Confirm that:
a group is the right choice instead of a hierarchy move
you know the operational purpose of the group
you know whether you need to create, edit, or delete a group
Go to Verifone Central → Device Management → Hierarchy/Group Management → Groups.
Check the current groups before you create or change one.
Open Actions to manage the selected group.
Use Create Group when you need a new device collection for a specific workflow.
Select Actions → Create Group.
Use Edit Group Details when the current group setup still fits, but its details need to change.
Select Actions → Edit Group Details.
Use Delete Group only when the collection is no longer needed.
Select Actions → Delete Group.
After you complete an action, confirm that:
the group list shows the intended create, edit, or delete result
the group still matches the operational purpose you planned
you did not change a group that should remain available for another workflow
Use these quick rules:
use Groups when device placement should stay the same
use Hierarchies when ownership or access should follow a business structure
return to Manage hierarchies and groups if you need to recheck the difference
You can manage device groups from one page.
