## How to Apply Party + Item Group Filters to SO / DO / Challan Retrieval in Sale Bill?
This tutorial explains how to enable and use the **"Filter SO/DO/Challan Retrieval for Party–Item Group Links"** feature in Logic ERP to ensure that only relevant orders or documents are retrieved during billing, based on specific party and item group associations.
***
### **Access Sale Voucher Configuration**
* Open **Sale Voucher Configuration**.
* Select the appropriate **Billing Series**.
* Locate and enable the option labeled as:
> **"Filter SO/DO/Challan Retrieval for Party–Item Group Links"**
* Click **Save** to apply the changes.
***
### **Link Party with Item Group**
* Navigate to the "Setup" and then expand "Party Wise Settings"
* Click to **"Set Party Wise Item Group Filter for Sale"**
* Select the relevant **Party**.
* Choose the appropriate **Item Groups** to be linked.
> "For demonstration purposes, we have shown it in entry mode."
* Click **Save**.
> This mapping ensures only orders containing items from the linked item group are available during retrieval.
***
### **Create a Sale Order (Optional)**
* Create a **Sale Order** with items from different item groups\
(e.g., *Shirts* and *Jeans*).
* This will help demonstrate how the system filters out unlinked groups during retrieval.
***
### **Retrieve the Order During Billing**
* Open the **Sale Bill** screen.
* Click on **Retrieve Order**.
* The system displays a list of items from the selected order.
* Select all items and click **OK**.
***
### **Observation:**
* Only items from **linked item groups** (e.g., *Shirts*) are retrieved.
* Items from unlinked groups (e.g., *Jeans*) are automatically filtered out.
***
### **Also Works for DO and Challan Retrieval**
* The same behavior applies when retrieving:
* **Delivery Orders (DO)**
* **Sale Challans**
* Only documents linked to the selected **Party + Item Group** will be shown for retrieval.
***
