Hi there,
Its my understanding that a group entity, either, Warehouse, Ecom, data model group, data model and data set, are the same entity. The groupType defines what group it is.
The EcomGroup entity contains a name, number, description, all the columns in the EcomGroups table. Its possible to import data into these columns regardless of the groupType.
I tested this with an update query on a data model group and updated the description of the group. Its updated but not visible in the data model.
There is a difference in what group data you can see/edit per groupType, why? The groups in a Shop may have a description, image and logo, a data model may not.
The use case would be to save group images, logos, description to describe a data model. Exactly like a warehouse group in DW9.
Also, it is possible to select columns such as 'Image', via the Actions -> Manage fields, when editing a data model group. But this does not make it visible.
See screenshots below for examples:
