## How to Stop Item Merging in Godown -Wise Transfers?
In this Tutorial, we will learn **how to restrict the merging of quantities for similar items in godown-wise stock transfer entries in Logic ERP**.
***
### Default System Behavior
By default, when the **same item is scanned or entered multiple times** during a godown-wise stock transfer, Logic ERP **automatically merges the item** and increases the quantity in a single line.
***
### Disable Item Merging
To restrict this behavior, follow these steps:
* Open the **Configuration** window.
* Navigate to **Other Settings**.
* Enable the option **“Do Not Merge Items”**.
* Save the configuration.
***
### Verify the Changes
* Create a **new godown-wise stock transfer voucher**.
* Select **Godown From** and **Godown To**.
* Scan or enter the **same item multiple times**.
**Result:**\
Each scan creates a **separate line entry**, and the quantities are **no longer merged**, regardless of how many times the same item is transacted.
***
### Benefit
* Better tracking of individual scans
* Useful for barcode-based operations
* Prevents unwanted quantity consolidation
***
This is how you can **restrict item quantity merging in godown-wise stock transfer entries in Logic ERP**.
