How to Configure Item Merging in Sale Bill?
This tutorial covers how to merge or manage duplicate item entries during billing using the Merge Items option in Logic ERP’s Sale Voucher Configuration.
Access Configuration
Navigate to Sale Voucher Configuration.
Select the relevant billing series.
Click to Other Settings-3.
Locate the option labeled "Merge Items".
From the dropdown, select either:
Merge Similar Items
Do Not Merge Similar Items
Prompt for Duplicate Item

Exploring Each Option in Detail
The Merge Items dropdown offers multiple parameters that control how duplicate items are handled during billing.
Merge Similar Items
Purpose: Automatically "Merge" quantities of the same item entered multiple times.

Useful for cleaner bills and consolidated item totals.
Example:
If you enter the same item twice:
Before: Two separate lines
After: One line with combined quantity
Do Not Merge Similar Items
Purpose: Keeps each item entry separate, even if it’s the same product.

Ideal when item-level notes or batch details need to be retained.
Example:
Enter the same item twice:
Each entry is recorded as a separate line in the bill.
Prompt for Duplicate Item
Purpose: Displays a confirmation prompt when a duplicate item is entered.

Allows billing personnel to decide whether to merge or cancel.
Example:
When you try to enter a duplicate item:
A prompt appears: “This item already exists in the voucher. Do you want to proceed?”
