Note:

You can overwrite the group names on the customer quotation using the group name edit function. You can then continue to use the group by product group action on the "Modify Checked Items" drop down list. New lines added to the customer quotation and grouped by product group will join the correct group even if the group name has been changed. If you overwrite a group name on the customer quotation the product group at the item master level will not be overwritten.
