I am trying to print kitchen orders separated by quantity.
If order:
2x Pork Dumplings
3x Chicken Dumplings
It will print total of 5 tickets in the Kitchen. What I am trying to achieve is to make it print 2x tickets. One ticket should have 2x Pork Dumplings and another should have 3x Chicken Dumplings.
Ill keep that in mind but I want to separate them by Product. If that was the only way to solve the problem I would have to have hundred different template or print jobs
Hmm, ok, the options aren’t what I thought then, I would have presumed the results like you were expecting…
Sure that was the case from old dicussions about printing labels. Unless something has inadvertently changed. Maybe cross reference topic about label printing from few years back.
Worst case can think of a workaround using order state updates to ‘loop’ through order lines but would have expected your setup to do what your asking.
Emre said this;
First one expands 5 X Coke to five 1 X Coke lines in ticket print.
Second one does the same and prints each line on separate papers
Which goes along with what we both thought it should be.
If it comes to it I would maybe look at using a custom order state flow and print in order state updated event.
Update orders to say printing then update event triggers print of printing state then extra update in closing sets printing to submitted. Just an idea, not tried.
Maybe Ill have to something like this becauase I really dont want to clone 300 print jobs. Thats good if you have few items but for this many its not a good solution.
Is it really a problem to create a hardcoded option “Separate prints by quantity sum”?
I am not exatly sure how is it being processed by the printer thats why I am asking.
So are there already solutions for this topic? I cannot find anywhere else,
would like separate prints by quantity sum
2x Pork Dumplings
3x Chicken Dumplings
It will print total of 5 tickets in the Kitchen. What I am trying to achieve is to make it print 2x tickets. One ticket should have 2x Pork Dumplings and another should have 3x Chicken Dumplings.
As we all have hundreds of items, it would not possible to do hundreds of print jobs
Thank you in advance
