You can use journal groups to organize the journals, such as for specific categories, or the journal goals, or audience, or other criteria. Journal groups help everyone in the system to quickly find and refer to a journal when they need it.

Different users can create their own journal groups to group the sets of journals for their specific use cases.

Click on Journal in the sidebar.

 

A list of journals appears.

Click on Show Groups, at the top. The journal groups' list appears.

 

Add new journal group

Click on Add to add a new journal group. A new row is added to the list where you can add the new group details.

 

Journal Group Name: Write the name of journal group. As you start writing, the word count limit message shows.

 

Image: Upload an image for this group.

Save: Click on Save to save the group.

 

Edit a journal group

You can edit any group in the list.

Click on the Edit icon corresponding to the target journal group. The group details are editable now.

Delete a journal group

You can delete only those journal groups that you have added to the backend. Locate the group that you want to delete, and click on the Delete icon.

The system asks you to confirm if you want to delete it.

 

Click on Ok to confirm it.

 

Search a journal group

Use the Search Journal Group option to find specific groups by their name. As soon as you start writing the name, the list shows the matching journal groups.

 

Sort the journal groups list

While using the list, you can sort it and rearrange the journal groups in a particular sequence.

Click on any column header name and the list sorts to show you the groups for that column's properties. For example if you filter it by name, the list shows the groups in the alphabetical order. If you sort it by the the number of journals issued, the list sorts the groups by the number of journals issued in the groups.

 

Click on Clear Filters to reset the list to its default view of complete records.
