Don't print child item flag use while posting packing slip (Delivery note)

Hi Team,
Can you please help to understand the use of 'Don't print child item flag' while posting the Delivery note (Packing slip).
Is it for suppressing the printing of Bundle Item components or some other purpose.
 
I tested with Bundle item, though the flag is turned on, packing slips still prints the Components.

    Hi Amit,
     
    This is a good question. You indeed might think of bundles or BOM explosion, but there is another purpose. This flag is related to subscription billing in case of revenue split.

    Hi Amit,
    In D365 F&O, the “Don’t print child item” flag in a Product bundle does NOT control what is printed on the Packing slip (Delivery note).
    That’s why in your test the components are still printing — this is expected behavior.
    This flag controls sales document printing (mainly Sales confirmation/invoice documents) for product bundles.
     
    The Packing slip (Delivery note) is different. Packing slips are based on Physical inventory transactions, What is actually picked and shipped.
     
    For a Product bundle in D365 F&O, the bundle parent is non-stocked and only the component items create inventory transactions.
     
    Since the packing slip prints based on InventTrans / physical update. The system prints the components because those are the actual items leaving inventory.
    The parent bundle has no physical transaction, So the flag does not affect Packing slip printing.
    This is standard system behavior.

    Hope it clarifies.

    When a sales order is created with a BOM as a single line, the BOM line is canceled and the components are automatically exploded into separate sales order lines. When generating reports, the system displays the component lines by default. If the BOM is not exploded, the reports will not generate the component details in the standard system.
