When you need to add a new classification, you can create a new account group within the Chart of Accounts.

## Creating Accounts Group

1. Go to the "Accounting" module.
2. Open the "Chart of Accounts" page.
3. Click on the " **+** " icon until you reach the group where you want to add the new group.

> **Note:** You cannot create an account group inside an account. The system only allows creating groups within groups or adding accounts within a group.

1. Select the group.
2. Click on " **New Node** ".

You will be automatically redirected to the "Nodes" page.

1. Enter the new group details, such as (Description, Alias, etc.).
2. Click on " **Save** ".

> **Note:** If the group already contains accounts, you won’t be able to create a new group within it. In this case, you can create a new group at a higher level, then add subgroups under it and move the accounts to them through the "[Re-locate accounts](https://help.getedara.com/en/articles/5244499-editing-the-chart-of-accounts)" page.
