# Manage Product Groups

Within the **Product Groups** space, you can:

* Create product groups
* View product groups
* Edit product groups

  **Note:** You can edit any product group field if the products aren't attached to an active or pending agreement. When products are associated with an active or pending agreement, you can only edit certain fields in the product group, such as the description and countries.

When you're creating a product group, you can also create new product(s) for the group or add draft product(s) to the group. To publish a product, it must first belong to a group.

The group level provides general information that applies to all products in the group. Adding more than one product to the group allows for options and variants for the customer to buy (for example: a Streaming Basic product and a Streaming Premium product in a group).

Product groups support the ability to upgrade and downgrade products. They also support the ability to publish products in a Reseller's (Service Provider's) external catalog.

1. Navigate to **Manage Products** > **Product Groups**.

   The **Product Groups** page appears.

2. Choose what you want to do:

   * To add a product group, select **New Product Group**.

     The **New Product Group** page appears.
