  Key Concepts: 
  A data collection group is a feature of the SAP Manufacturing Execution (MFG-ME) component that allows users to group together related data points for easier analysis. It is used to collect and store data from multiple sources, such as machines, sensors, and other systems, and then organize it into meaningful categories. This makes it easier to analyze the data and identify trends or patterns.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use a data collection group, users must first define the group by specifying the data points they want to collect. They can then assign a name to the group and set up rules for how the data should be collected. Once the group is set up, users can start collecting data from various sources and store it in the group. The collected data can then be used for analysis or reporting purposes.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up a data collection group, it is important to ensure that all of the necessary data points are included in the group. This will help ensure that all relevant information is collected and stored in an organized manner. Additionally, users should consider setting up rules for how often the data should be collected and how long it should be stored in the group. This will help ensure that only relevant and up-to-date information is used for analysis or reporting
