  Key Concepts: 
  A sales group is a component of the SAP Sales and Distribution (SD) module. It is used to group together sales documents, such as orders, deliveries, and invoices, for a particular customer. This allows for easier tracking and analysis of customer orders. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Sales groups can be created in the SAP system by entering the customer number and assigning a sales group code. This code can then be used to group together all sales documents related to that customer. The sales group code can also be used to assign discounts or other pricing conditions to the customer. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a sales group, it is important to ensure that the correct customer number is entered. This will ensure that all sales documents are correctly grouped together. Additionally, it is important to assign the correct pricing conditions to the sales group in order to ensure that customers receive the correct discounts or other pricing conditions.
