#### Example: Difference Between Standard and Duplicate Selection

#### Standard Selection

When a record is selected, it is either selected or deselected as usual.

#### Duplicate Selection

With duplicate selection enabled, selecting the same record multiple times will add it to the line items as many times as it is selected.
