We want to discern the different items on the Picking Ticket so that member items are indented under the Kit Item. At the same time, the sales order will have a combination of items and kits where the same item my be appearing as part of a kit and also appearing as its own sale line. When I use ${item.itemtype} it's the same for both appearances of the item. What is the field that can help me do this? I have tried ${item.memberitem} {item.kitcomponent} ${item.parent}

if you add item.itemType to a field on the pdf does it return a value? I always run into issues when applying filters based on field values where I need to turn it into a string or back to a number depending.

returns InvtPart for Items and Kit for the kits. BUT if I sell Item A as a standalone part it also still appears as an InvtPart. I'm thinking there needs to be a transaction line field that is identifying the line as being added becuase it was a kit member.

I could not get native templates to work this way, I had to script our picking ticket PDF. If the line item is a kit item, I had to load the kit record to get the members.

I do notice on the transaction that the kit member items are numbered in sequence after the kit item line. I wonder what magic NS is using to indicate that to themselves

I think it was a two part solution, I indroduced a hidden checkbox(Kit Member), which was either getting sourced from item, or I was scripting it, In the PDF I was doing indentation using this, and there is a preference I guess as well, where it will let you print all member items of kit. Check that box kit members will be available to print.
