has anyone found a good workaround to the "you cannot edit the end of a group" message when dealing with item groups on sales orders via script?

what are you actually trying to do when you are getting this error?

dynamically add items to a group that exists on the order basically, we have lines that are tagged in an order to add to an item group, I collect those items and then add them to the existing item group on the order. I shouldn't be adding past the count of items that exist to add and I have in my script to skip end of group item type but no luck

Are you using insertLine ?

I'll give that a try - thank you for the tip!

I think using a custom grouping field is a better approach. I prefer to add a custom field and assigned a value. However, I found this approach to be more useful for custom groups than the default grouping behavior.

If you want to ignore the end of group item, use the itemtype field from the lines and skip if the item type is EndGroup

@NickSuite I did try that but I must be missing something because I'm still getting the error. I am going to try the insertline approach today to see if I can figure it out
