RE: Flagging Items for Deletion

I understand that Geac are introducing a much improved Item Deletion in SP6.
SP6 is scheduled for the end of next year, more likely 2002.

This was discussed at the Geac S21 Customer Services & Logistics SIG in
September. They admitted that the current functionality is not up to much.

                Unfortunately, when JBA deletes an item it really deletes it
- from all
                master files.  If you delete only the stockroom details
record(s), you still
                retain the item master BUT it will still check all types of
files for
                reference to that item and  stockroom combination.  If any
exist it may or
                may not allow deletion, depending upon the setting in an
Inventory
                Descriptions file record, but will delete all transaction
references, such
                as Inventory Movements if you do delete the stockroom
record.

                Among the files checked are (this is from memory but I think
it is pretty
                complete):

                MSP20 BOM Header (parent)
                MSP28 BOM Components
                MSP40 WO Header (parent)
                MSP42 WO Components
                PDP46 Operation Outputs
                INP95 Inven Movements
                INP60 Stockroom Details
                PMP17 Requisitions
                PDP26 Operation Outputs
                PMP03 PO Lines

                When you run the utility for item deletion, it does print a
listing
                indicating why a flagged item is not deletable if that is
the case.
