What is the difference between a Content Group and a Content View?

Great question!

This subject can seem a bit confusing, let's break it down to the simplest form:

Content Views: Grouping of catalogs and non-catalog suppliers into logical sets. 

  • A single Content View can belong to multiple Content Groups. 
  • Ex: Region, Commodity, Division, Content groups are then assigned to Content Views.

Content Groups: Users assigned to a Content View(s). This assignment determines what catalogs and non-      catalog suppliers users will have access to. 

  • A single Content Group may be assigned to multiple Content Views.

Quite simply the Views populates the experience for the Groups. See the diagram below for details.
