6.0 Plan Creator Groupings

Groupings are used when you need information to be shown on a different layer, in a similar way to how supplementary data was shown on the DMS. Further detail on when it is appropriate to create Groupings can be found at the Groupings Further Information page.


6.1 Creating a grouping

To create a grouping, while classifying a reference that you know will need to be on a different layer simply:

a. Click on the Assign to group field.

b. Select the appropriate group.
c. Click Confirm.
d. A new group/layer will be created with the reference in it.


6.2 Add further references to an existing grouping

If you wish to add a reference to an existing group/layer, then:

a. Select your reference, and complete the fields within the classification menu.

b. Click on the Assign to group field.

c. Select the required group (as you can see, a new group name is selectable as well as the existing one).

Click Confirm.

d. The reference is then placed within the chosen group.


6.3 Moving references between groupings

Moving a reference to another group or to put it back in the "Ungrouped" layer is straightforward.

a. Select the reference you wish to move.

Click Classify.

b. Select No Group to move the reference back to the ungrouped layer

or

Select another group to move it to that layer.

c. Click Confirm.


6.4 Deleting a grouping

a. To delete a group, just click the trash can icon in the panel .

b. A pop-up window will appear warning that this action will delete ALL references in the group.

c. If you do not need any of the references, click Yes.

However, if you need some or all of the references then click No. The needed references can then be manually moved to a different group/layer before this group is deleted.
