Honitsu is aligned to a single suit. Therefore, this yaku is compatible with other yaku, that follows that pattern; and multiple suited yaku do not apply, namely sanshoku and sanshoku doukou. Naturally, the "single suited" yaku of ittsu can merge with honitsu, only if the fourth tile group is of the same suit. Other yaku are able to function with multiple suits; but they are also possible using single suits, namely toitoi and sanankou. The same applies for chiitoitsu. Commonly, this yaku works with yakuhai, and likewise, shousangen.
Of course, honitsu is not compatible with chinitsu. Honitsu requires honor tiles, where as chinitsu does not.
