About Group Items
Group Items display as tabs in the left navigation menu. They divide a Content Group (module) into functional sectors. Clicking a Group Item tab will expand a menu of Group Item Links that access forms, searches, and other links that are specific to the Content Group and Group Item in which your user is working.

In this example from the CRM Content Group, Individuals and Organizations are Group Items. Add Individual is a Group Item Link.
Group Items for less frequently accessed sectors within a Content Group might not display as a separate tab in the left navigation menu. Instead, the Find Group Item Link for these Group Items will be listed under the More tab. See About Advanced Find Links for more information.
Hidden Group Items
Group Items that do not display are hidden group items Content Group child forms. To hide a Group Item, the No Display flags for both the Group Item and for the Find Group Item Link must be checked.
If the No Display flag for the Find Group Item Link is not checked, then it is a Advanced Find Link and the Group Item is not hidden.
View an example
In this example from the CRM Content Group, the No Display flag is checked for both the Interest Codes Group Item and for the Find Group Item Link. Therefore, Interest Codes is a hidden Group Item, so it is not the left navigation menu, and the Find Interest Codes Group Item Link will not be listed under More.
