In this paper, we introduce and explore suggested notions of `above', `below' and `between' in general groupoids, $Bin(X)$, as well as in more detail in several well-known classes of groupoids, including groups, semigroups, selective groupoids (digraphs), $d/BCK$-algebras, linear groupoids over fields and special cases, in order to illustrate the usefulness of these ideas. Additionally, for groupoid-classes (e.g., $BCK$-algebras) where these notions have already been accepted in a standard form, we look at connections between the several definitions which result from our introduction of these ideas as presented in this paper.
Keywords: below, above, between, $d/BCK$-algebra, poset, $Bin(X)$, order-preserving, $\beta$-medial
