Re: Changing an item to inactive status for an item that has inventory but don't want any more activity on it

I just pulled up the R9.1 EPDM supplemental from inforxtreme:

Release to customer 
The Release to customer attribute is used by the Customer Service 
Management (CSM) application to control whether a customer order can be 
created for an item revision. If the Release to customer status is set to Yes, 
the customer order creation for the item revision can proceed. If set to No, 
the customer order create function cannot process the item revision. 
The Release to customer attribute provides an additional level of 
control for which revision of an item is eligible for sale to 
customers. For example, if an item is being replaced by a newer 
model, you can assign the item revision for the current version to 
an implementation status that has the Release to customer value 
set to No. That item is then no longer available for new customer 
orders in CSM, but existing orders for the item can still be 
processed and inventory transactions are not affected.

Yes, we tested out implementation status which was what I was thinking. It 

still affects only PO and MO creation and ability to maintain BOM and Routings. But it still lets you book.
Thanks for the idea on user exits.

Have you looked at implementation statuses.  In R7.8 they only control 
engineering, Mfg, BOM, and Routing.  I thought this was going to be 
expanded to Sales as Well (at some point in the future).  If it hasn't 
happened yet, you could use one of the three user Boolean fields and use 
CSM user exits to check for those.

Hello group,
We  have parts that have inventory but don't want any more (accidental) 
inventory booking activity. Is there a good way to do this?
We are at release 9.1
