# Group Profile

The group profile helps users hide groups and subgroups based on specific conditions. You can define these conditions in IMCExpression.

## Prerequisites

Before configuring a group profile, you should understand how to work with IMCExpression, lookup tables, and product schema.

## Configure a group profile

To configure a group profile, you must:

- Create and activate a lookup table
- [Create a group profile and map it to the lookup table](/v1/docs/group-profile#create-a-group-profile-and-map-it-to-the-lookup-table)

### Create and activate a lookup table

1. Create a lookup table. [Learn how](/v1/docs/lookup-tables). The lookup table must contain the following columns:
  - GROUP_NAME
  - SUBGROUP_NAME with data record type String
2. Activate the table.
3. Create records to specify which groups and subgroups should be hidden. Create records in the UI or import a spreadsheet in Excel format.

### Create a group profile and map it to the lookup table

1. From the application left navigation area, select **Administration**.
2. From **Master Data Management**, select **Group Profile**.
3. Select Add to add a row to the list, then select the new row.
4. Enter or make selections to set up the group profile:
  - **Name**—Enter a name for the profile.
  - **links LookupTable**—Enter the name for the lookup table to map.
  - **links LookupTable Group Name**—Enter a name for the group.
  - **links LookupTable SubGroup Name**—Enter a name for the subgroup.
  - Set the **Active** switch to **YES**.
