# \[Beta] Billing Groups Overview

You can use billing groups to help you manage how partner and platform fees are invoiced and paid across your various programs. Each billing group can have a specific funding account associated with it which you can update as needed.

**Note:** Should you create a new billing group, any previously processed payments and invoices will remain in the associated billing group and will not be moved to the new billing group; only upcoming payments and invoices will be allocated to the new billing group.
{% endhint %}

#### Pre-requisites

* You must have more than one program.
* You need separate invoices or you need to fund each program from different funding accounts to invoice costs from different programs separately.

#### Key features

The billing group feature allows you to do the following:

* [Create](https://help.impact.com/brand/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/platform-features/finance/finance-settings/create-a-billing-group) and [edit](https://help.impact.com/brand/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/platform-features/finance/finance-settings/beta-manage-billing-groups-and-funding-accounts-as-a-brand) multiple billing groups by assigning which programs' costs are to be associated with each group.
* Create a funding account for each billing group (that can also be used to fund other billing groups).
* Manage document settings for each billing group.
* Filter partner invoices by billing group.
