Part Groups let you quickly apply and manage common settings for multiple parts at once. They serve as an internal management tool and are only accessible within the Management Module.

Important Details
- Each Part can belong to only one Part Group, but grouping is optional. Parts with unique settings typically remain ungrouped.
- When a Part is added to a group, it automatically adopts the group’s shared settings - these are located in the tabbed section below the part name list.
- If parts do not share all of these shared settings, they should not be grouped.
