+__Definitions of Groupings__
+**Parent Groups: **  This is used to define a Parent and all the related Children. Listing a Parent as the Contractee or Eligible Distributor would allow all the defined children and parent to be able to claim against that contract without having to create a contract for each individual location.
+Example: Sysco Corp is the Parent to children Sysco Atlanta, Sysco Chicago, Sysco Eastern PA, etc. If a contract is created for Sysco Corp then Sysco Corporate, Sysco Atlanta, Sysco Chicago and Sysco Eastern PA can claim against that contract, eliminating the need to create a contract for each individual location.
+**Buying Groups:**  This is used to define a Buying Group and all the related members of that buying group.  Create the Buying Group and associated all members to that group.
+Examples of Buying Groups are Frosty Acres and Unipro.
+**Custom Groups:** This is used to create Custom company groupings.  The Custom Group name can be anything - it does not have to be an existing company.
+Example: There are promotions for SE Sysco houses.  Create a custom group called Sysco SE and link all the Sysco SE locations to the custom group.  When creating contracts, this custom group Sysco SE can be added to the contract instead of having to add each sysco location.
+Creating company groups makes creating contracts easier.  By adding a company grouping to a contract at either the contractee or eligible distributor level, multiple companies can be added by one action.

+__Company Group Types__
+The Company Group Type is set based on the Company Type of its members.  All companies within a group must have the same Internal Company Type defined so an operator company can't exist in a company group where the company group type is distributor.  If a company exists within a grouping and that individual company group type is changed, that company will automatically be removed from that grouping.
