## How to Disable Item Description Formula in Item Modification?

 In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to prevent the automatic application of the item description formula when modifying an item in Logic ERP. This feature ensures that item descriptions remain unchanged after the initial creation, allowing for better control over data consistency.

### **Enable Item Description Formula** 

* To create an item Description formula, go to Configuration 2 and click on "Item Description Formula." 
* Click here to [learn more](/logic-erp-learning-hub-tutorials-and-best-practices/setups/setup-items/setup-items-multiple-pack-sizes/configuration-multiple-packs-sizes/configuration-options-2/item-description-1-formula.md) about it.

### **Enabling Restriction for Modify Mode**

* Navigate to the Setups/Setup Items and then click on "Setup Items Multiple Packs/Sizes".
* Click on Configuration.
* Locate the option and enable "Do Not Apply Item Description formula in Modify Mode" under the Configuration option - 1.

### **Creating a New Item**

* Proceed with creating a new item.
* The item description will be automatically generated based on the formula.
* Save the item to finalize the process.

### **Modifying the Item**

* Open the previously created item.
* Modify specific details, such as the **shade name**.
* Observe that while the shade name has changed, the **item description remains unchanged**, as the formula is no longer applied in modify mode.

### **Conclusion**

By enabling this feature, Logic ERP provides greater control over item descriptions, preventing unintended modifications while ensuring data accuracy. This is particularly useful for businesses that require stable descriptions across their inventory.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://kb.logicerp.com/logic-erp-learning-hub-tutorials-and-best-practices/setups/setup-items/setup-items-multiple-pack-sizes/configuration-multiple-packs-sizes/configuration-options-1/do-not-apply-item-description-formula-in-modify-mode.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
