Ship groups are groups of order items that share the same shipping

(during
the checkout process).
Jacopo,
you explained very well. Just a note: In ecommerce it is possible to
use
"Split Shipment" option to specify different ship groups.

Thank you Bilgin, this is correct but if I am not wrong with that
option the user can just say that he will accept more than one
shipment; I don't think the user has the ability to define different
options (e.g. shipment methods) for different ship groups (as it is
possible in the order manager order entry).
