There is a new BPCS feature called Product Life Cycle (PLC) - though I
think it's a V8.3 feature - that will allow you to do exactly what you
want.
You define the status codes with 20+ flags that allow/prevent the part
from being used on any kind of order, placed on a BOM, moved in
inventory etc.
Saw a demo at Inforum and it's miles beyond what the status codes do in
prior versions.

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
