# Create Group

### Aim

Swiftly set up a group that you can start working with.

### Benefits

Create a group so the records of treatments, traits, and joining can be updated for all the members of the group with just one entry instead of an individual entry for each animal, plant or item.

### Steps

**Important Note:**\
If using bluetooth devices to scan items, please be sure to connect or pair to phone.
