Is there a way to place an item on hold? We have an active item in the item master, on numerous par locations and templates with an amount on hand. We do not want departments to be able to order, is there a way for this item to be 'sequestered' so when departments order, the order does not go thru?

*we thought about removing the amount on hand, so the item is killed, but would rather not do this way.

I don't think you have a lot of choice. If the item is active with quantity on hand it can be ordered. Why don't you want the end users to order it?

Yea, that is what I thought, but wanted to verify. I am not sure exactly why they do not want it ordered, reviewing something in regards to the item, or not ready for it to go out, I believe.

Thanks for the input

Anything you do to "break" it is still just a soft stop that will just prompt the users for information. We've got some that are active on the IC11 but I on IC12 and all PO25s on hold.

We've got some that we tied to a "vendor" that actually emails the buyer as a transmission method.

Good luck!
