Print Split By Option and Attributes – Accurate Feature Explanation

The Print Split By Option and Attributes feature controls how product variations are printed in the invoice when multiple options or attributes are used in a single bill.

This feature does not change stock, price, or tax logic.
It only changes how items are displayed in the printed invoice.

🔹 Where to Configure

Go to:

Backoffice - Features → Attributes → Print Split By Option and Attributes

You will see two settings:

  • Print split by Attributes
  • Print split by Option

Select the required Attribute or Option and click Save.

1️⃣ Print Split by Attributes

When you select an attribute (for example: DiamondQuantity):

If the same product is added multiple times with different attribute values,
the invoice will print them as separate lines instead of combining them.

What This Means:

If a product contains different attribute values, each variation will appear individually in the invoice print.

If this feature is disabled, the system may merge similar items into a single line (based on system configuration).

2️⃣ Print Split by Option

When you select an option (for example: GoldKarat):

If a product is billed with different option values, the invoice will print each option separately.

What This Means:

Each option variation (like different karat, size, or type)
will appear as a separate line item in the printed bill.

If disabled, the system may group them depending on product configuration.

🎯 Why This Feature Is Used

This feature is commonly enabled in businesses where:

  • Product options affect pricing
  • Product attributes affect weight or specification
  • Each variation must be clearly visible in the printed invoice
  • Audit clarity is required

Especially useful for:

  • Jewelry billing
  • Variant-based products
  • Specification-based items

⚠ Important Notes

  • This feature only affects invoice print layout.
  • It does not modify product data.
  • It does not change stock deduction logic.
  • It does not change pricing calculations.
  • It only controls line-item separation in printed output.

✅ When to Enable

Enable this feature when:

  • You want each product variation clearly separated in invoice print.
  • Option or attribute differences must be visible to customers.
  • Billing transparency is important.

This ensures clean, structured, and variation-based invoice printing without altering backend calculations.
