Each group must be assigned a class (Service File, Intake or Shared). If you assign the General group to the Shared class the Presenting Issues in this group will be available on both the Intake Wizard and the Service File, however, if you had assigned it to the Service File class the Presenting Issues in this group would only be available at the Service File level. All Presenting Issues must be assigned to a Presenting Issue Group.
