Merging Group Names into one single Group

Hi,

I have extracted all the information from our call logging system and ran it into Qlikview, and in a field called suppgroup I have a list box with the following groups:

Builds

Financial Systems

Business Developer

Service Desk

Service Desk Desktop

Service Desk NHS

Technical Support

IT Support

Helpdesk

What I am looking to achieve is to put the above groups into a specific group.  Please see example below.

Builds, IT Support, Helpdesk = IT Support

Business Developer, Financial Systems = Business Systems

Service Desk, Service Desk Desktop, Service Desk NHS = Service Desk

Technical Support = Technical Support

As you can see above, I should only have 4 groups called, IT Support, Business Systems, Service Desk and Technical Support.

Would someone be able to help me with this query please?

Regards,

Jon Ditchfield
