Peter,
We are on V6.04 but moving soon to LX 8.3.2
I don't know of any way to actually stop items being ordered once they
are Item Mastered. As a partial solution you could set up an Item Status
Code that is defined as "Not Yet Ready - Don't Order Yet" and code items
to this until they are ready to be ordered. Then at least Customer Order
Entry will throw up the message warning the operators not to put the
part on the Order. Once ready to be ordered change the Item Status Code
back to 00.
We do something similar to prevent ordering of items we have made
obsolete.
I don't think Purchasing or SFC dos anything similar. If anyone else
knows anything on this subject, I too would be interested.

Subject: [BPCS-L] Block item for Shop Floor or Sales
Hello,
We are on BPCS 8.2.
For new product development we need to create the item number in BPCS.
As soon as an item number is created in BPCS it is available for the
order programs.
Is there a way in BPCS to block an item number for Purchasing, Shop
Floor or Sales?
Regards,
Peter Heeren
