Revenue Split - Suppress Child Items

When the sales invoice includes items that use revenue split, you can select whether the child items appear on the invoice. When child items are hidden from the invoice, the parent line shows the summary value of the hidden child items. See example for details.

When the allocation method for the parent item is Equal amount, Percentage, or Variable amount, the Unit price, Net amount, and Discount would show zero (0) amounts.

For example, when the Allocation Method is Percentage and Suppress child items is No, the invoice shows all parent and child line items as follows:

Child Items Table
Item	Unit Price	Net Amount
Parent	0	0.00
Child 1	50	50
Child 2	50	50

When the Allocation Method is Percentage and Suppress child items is Yes, simply hiding the child items shows the following:

Allocation Method Percentage Table
Item	Unit Price	Net Amount
Parent	0	100.00

Field	Description
Automatically create revenue split	Select how revenue splitting is applied to parent items that are added or imported: Yes: Automatically applies revenue splitting for a parent item that has an associated revenue split template. No: Does not automatically apply revenue splitting for the parent item. To use revenue splitting, manually update the item when you add it.
Deferral round account	Select the account you want to use for recording any rounding adjustments to a contract revenue amount. Available when Advanced Recurring Contract Billing is installed and used.
SSP origin	Determines where the standalone selling price is from. You can override this value on the Item Standalone Selling Price page and on the transaction. The standalone selling price is based on one of the following options: Amount: The standalone selling price is amount greater than zero (0) that you set. The amount is converted between the functional and originating currencies as needed. Base sales price: The standalone selling price is the same value as the base sales price of the item. Invoice price: The standalone selling price is the same value as the invoice price of the item. Percent of item: The standalone selling price is set by a percentage value and is calculated based on the price of the item. When you select this option, specify the default percent. Allocate residual amount: The origin of the standalone selling price is calculated as follows: Total contract value of parent item - Total SSP of child items. If the calculated amount is a negative value, the amount is set to zero (0). Where: Total Contract Value of Parent Item is the net or billed amount Total SSP of child items is the sum of the extended or contract standalone selling price of all child items, except for the child item that uses this SSP origin. Note: This option can be selected by only one child item in the revenue split. None: The origin of the standalone selling price is based on the child items. This option applies to items that are defined as a parent item in a revenue split template. When Revenue split is selected, this option is automatically selected and cannot be changed. Percent of parent invoice price: The origin of the standalone selling price is a percent of the invoice price of the parent item. You can change the default value. Available only for child items in a revenue split template. Percent of parent standard price: The origin of the standalone selling price is a percent of the standard price of the parent item. You can change the default value. Available only for child items in a revenue split template. Default option for child items. When the option for a child item is changed from percent of parent standard price to invoice price (or vice versa), the calculated values are also updated.
Suppress child items on print	Indicates whether child items of a revenue split appear on a sales invoice: Yes: All child items are hidden from the sales invoice. Only the parent item appears on the invoice. If the net amount of the (hidden) child items has a non-zero sum, the net amount of the parent line shows a summary of the child lines. For more information, see Revenue Split - Suppress Child Items. No: All child items appear below the parent item on a sales invoice. The net amount for each child item appears on the invoice. This option can be used only when all (parent and child) items in a revenue split are included on the invoice. This setting is the default value on the Posting Invoice and Sales Order pages.
