Set the line type of a line in the order details
This is an option at the Quote / Orders screen on the Edit box above the Order details grid. This sets the row to be a specific type of data for example, a detail, or a sub-total.
● Move to the line
Select
the Line type button
The options are:-
nn - main item (nn stands for a number)
- detail item (blank)
= - sub total line
The default type is 'Main item'. The main item has a line number at the left of the line. A detail line is left blank at the left of the line (no number). A sub total line has the symbol = at the left of the line.
Select the line type button ONCE to select a line as a detail line. A detail line has no line number and is associated with the numbered (non detail line) above. Use this to specify extra details or comments about a main item. For example, the fitting or hardware for a product might be usefully set a details.
