You can group resource types in the Navigator panel to help you organize and manage them. Groups can also be hierarchical, resulting in resource trees in the Navigator panel. Apart from the characteristics of the resources involved, such as assets or vulnerabilities, each group identity has certain properties you can edit in the Group Editor.
To add or edit a resource group:
To add a group, right-click a resource group and choose New Group.
Or to edit an existing group, right click the group and choose Edit Group.
In the Group Editor, enter or change the group attributes you want to change.
For the group's name, do not use special characters like & (ampersand), * (asterisk), and % (percent). The group name becomes part of URIs (uniform resource identifiers), and therefore follows the same restrictions for URIs in general. The escape character option is not available in this case.
Optional: Under the Reference Pages section, enter applicable information, for example:
Entering data in the Common and Assign sections is optional, depending on how your environment is configured. For information about the Common and Assign attributes sections, as well as the read-only attribute fields in Parent Groups and Creation Information, see Common Resource Attribute Fields.
Optional: To add information in the Notes tab, refer to Using Notes.
Click Apply to put your changes into effect but leave the editor open. Click OK to apply your changes and also close the editor.
Fields containing system information (like Creation Time
) are not editable.
See Reference Pages for more about using the Group Page and Group Children's Page fields.
See Job Scheduler for information about scheduling tasks or “jobs” for reports (individually or by group), rules, or Threat Detector snapshots.

The asset group editor for has an additional Categories tab. This tab has two sub panels: Local Asset Categories and Inherited Asset Categories. Local shows assets that are explicitly assigned to categories. Inherited shows assets whose category connections are presumptions based on a parent's group or a simple asset-range association.
