View/Edit Attribute Mappings : Create Attribute Mapping Groups
To create a new attribute mapping group right-click on either the top-level Attribute Mappings node, or on an existing attribute group node. From the menu that is then displayed, select either the Create > Attribute Group option or the Insert > Attribute Group option.
If the Create option is selected, the new attribute group node with the default name of New Attribute Mappings is then created at the bottom of the hierarchy of groups and mappings within the currently selected node.
If the Insert option is selected, the new attribute group is instead created directly above the node that was selected when the option was selected. The Insert option is not available from the top-level Attribute Mappings node.
