Contacts - Add or assign contacts to contact groups directly from within the contact record
It would be nice to be able to attach customers to groups within the contact details screen. Due to the way Xero works, every single customer has to be attached to at least two different groups for reporting purposes. I have one group called Customers so that I get every customer an no other entities in reports. The next I have to attach the customer to a state since there is no availability to create reports of sales by state.

Thanks for bringing this idea to the community. We can understand why being able to add a contact to a group directly from an individual contact record could make managing contacts more efficient, particularly when you're already updating their details.
At the moment, contact groups can only be managed from the Contacts list. From there, you can select one or more contacts and use Add to group to assign them to an existing contact group in bulk.
We've updated the status of this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking community's interest.

I posted this same idea a few years ago. Crazy that something that would be so time saving isn't a part of the system. It's so annoying the way it is currently setup. This should be such an easy fix, especialy in this Claude Code AI world we're living in.
