Common promoted action groups

Business Central defines the following common action groups as part of the standard application functionality. The list isn't exhaustive, but shows the most common action groups, their typical use, and the recommended use of the split button capability.

Common action group Characteristics Show as Split Button
Home, or Process This group has the caption Home in entity-oriented pages (Card, Document, ListPlus) and the caption Process in collection-oriented pages (Worksheet and List). In both cases, the group holds actions that change or update the current entity/entities. This group should have actions that start or end tasks, as the user sees it. No
<Name of an entity>
For example Customer and Order
The caption of the Entity group in page matches that of the business entity represented by the page. For example, on the Customer Card page, the entity group has the caption Customer.
