You can group more than one process that have the same conditions or that you want to process together into a group.

Features

  • Process groups

    You can use process groups to group processes that are displayed on the user interface. The processes that belong to the same process group are displayed together in the start application that this process group is assigned to.

  • Collision groups

    You can use collision groups to group processes to check processes for collisions with the grouped processes.

  • Groups for authorization checks

    You can group processes for which the same authorization checks are made into an authorization group.
