The manual or automatic grouping of one or more items (main items and/or sub-items) in a sales order so that they can be delivered on the same date.
An item that is confirmed for several delivery dates can be confirmed for a single delivery date if it is assigned to a delivery group. This is the latest delivery date of all the confirmation schedule lines of this item.
All items that are assigned to the same delivery group are confirmed for a single delivery date. This is the latest delivery date of all these items.
If the sales order is marked in the header for complete delivery, then all items will be assigned to the same delivery group.
You can do the Delivery group settings in the itemcategory detail screen.
Go to VOV7 transaction select the item category to which you want to activate delivery group then go in to the detail screen here you can find the field Create Delivery Group under Bill Of Material/Configuration tab maintain related settings in that field.

As d defn itself indicates: Delivery Group is useful for normal items also as v just need 2 group d itmes which r 2 b dlvrd on d same date. Hence d relation between the items being grouped doesn't matter.
Hope SAP defn of Dlvry Group n Configuration steps r clear from other posts.
