How to restrict the groups created by Group Family

I created a Group Family based on office location and only users with a certain job title.  It works great but it also create groups with no users matching.  I would like to restrict Group Family to only create groups when there's at least one member.

    "Right now it create groups even if there's no matching users"

    I don't understand how this is possible? Can you provide some more details on the criteria / rules you have setup for the family creation?

    It has always been my experience that it will only create a group when it finds a particular value in a user attribute that has been selected for grouping - so if for example, there's a user with 'Finance' in the Department, it will create that. But it sounds like what you are saying is that in your case, it will create a group for 'Marketing' even though there is no user with that for their Department field? Am I understanding your scenario correctly?
