It's fairly straightforward to do this.

Go to: Settings > All Settings and under 'Node & Group' select Manage Groups.

Find the group you want [sorry, no search here] and tick the box - but make sure only the one box is ticked - n.b. manage groups is very good at ticking things you didn't think you had so be ultra cautious when deleting groups.

e.g.

Once ticked, from the top menu bar select 'Add & Remove Objects' and then 'Add Dynamic Query'.

give your query a name
- BTW: you probably won't need to want to change from Node as the object, but there are plenty of options if you do
Add a condition - we frequently use a custom property of client_site to filter on. So any new kit that gets labelled as that site will auto-appear in the group.
Preview and adjust as necessary.

Once happy with the results, Save and then Submit.
