Missing product groups

Sometimes the Group dropdown on a product does not list every group you expect. Newer groups can be missing on older products — especially when a group was created after the product, or when group settings relate to manufacturing / batch behaviour.

New products created after a group exists will pick up the correct group data automatically. For existing products that are missing groups, you can backfill the data using Product Group Override Settings on that product.

How to use it (backfill missing groups)

Use this on any product where groups are missing from the Group dropdown.

1. Go to Products → Products and open the product that is missing groups.
2. Scroll down to Product Group Override Settings.
3. Turn Override Group Settings on.
4. Tick Products Manufactured.
5. Click Save Product.
6. After the page reloads, turn Override Group Settings off again (leave other values as needed for normal use).
7. Save if prompted / confirm the product has reloaded. Open the Group dropdown again — the full set of available groups should now appear.
