NOTES:
- Only barcodes and text can be used for composite data source.
- A Composite item cannot be composed from itself or by another composite item that
uses it.
- It is recommended to change the name of the items that will be part of the formula
to easily recognize the components of the field while creating.
- If an item that is used in a composition is removed, it will be removed in the formula
as well.
- It is possible to edit the formula manually from the “Composite assistant”.
- A composite item can be composed by other Data Sources such as counters and
dates.
