Item and Subitems (mother and daughter): how not to view the price for the 'mother item'

I would like to share a request for assistance

Request
In the Price List structured with "mother and daughter", how not to view the price "0" for the mother description at printing stage?

Answer
With reference to the above request, it is necessary to select the option 'Description only' in the page 'Standard' from the 'Detail' window of the items only containing the description (see explicative image).

However, considering that you have recently started using the software, I would like to remind you that PriMus allows you to manage the group items even without using the “item” with the descriptiononly.

EXPLANATION
To get thedesiredtypographical restitutionin the documents to print it is necessary to create the'group items' ('items and sub items' or 'mother item and daughteritems') in the 'Price list' editor of the document, always including in each item the complete description and the related unit price. Therefore, it is not necessary to create a 'mother item' with the description only; once structured the group items as indicated, the software will provide the desired view.

HOW TO PROCEED
1) create the first item by pressing the 'Ins' keyin the document 'Price List'editor;
2) open the window 'Details';
3) fill in the (Tariffs, Extended and Short Description, Unit of Measurement, Price) fields to define the first item;
Example:
Tariff:
'NP.001.a'
Extended Description:
' Pead pipe including excavations, backfills, etc.. for underground waste pipes, constituted by spiral winding on a mandrel of a profiled extruded PEAD (HDPE) and reinforced inside with a corrugated tube in polypropylene, with a smooth inner wall free of undulations due to shrinkage or deformation, with structural continuity between the coils obtained from uniform and continuous polyfusion of the PEAD. Stiffness class SN 2, SN 4 or SN 8. Bars equipped with specific foundation socket welded hot-dip and sealing ring (from dn 500 to dn 1500) or with joining system in socket welded hot-dip to galvanize (from dn 2000 to dn 3000). The price includes formation of the laying bed of 15 cm, the revetment for a minimum of 20 cm and the coating for a minimum layer of 20 cm from the extrados of the pipe with fine soil or silt coming from the excavations; Ø 125'
Price:
'210.00'


...once created the first 'group'item, in order to create the next one you simply need to:
4) right-click on the already created group;
5) select the 'Duplicate Price List Item' option from the contextual menu;
6) modify those parts characterizing it (for example: the final part of the Tariff NP.001b; the final part of the Description ø 160; the unit price 230.00)

Directly from the 'Price List' editor it is possible to view the group items by simply activating the 'Extended description and Sub items'option in the 'View Options' toolbox (see explicative image).

In order to have the group items structure included in the documents to print, you only need to select the 'Extended description and Sub items' option in the 'Various/Signatures' pagefrom the printing settings of the requested document
