Re: Component sales to Contract Manufacturers-AGAIN -- MAPICS-L

Lloyd, Here are two possibilities:

(1) Set up separate item numbers for the end of life components and only
stock them in the special warehouse.

(2) Set up separate customer numbers for end of life sales and make the
special warehouse the default for these customers.
