Item doesn't change from Discontinue to Sales inventory again

Posted on by 905

Hi 

I had an item that was Sales inventory that was discontinued.  so we turned it to discontinued 

now we need to change it back to Sales inventory but it doesn't save 

 i open the item card. change it to sales inventory

click save 

go back and view it again. it changes back to discontinued 

any idea why this is happening ?

Thanks 

Ola

    Hi Ola,

    i tried it on the Dynamics GP 2013 Sp2 and its also working and i could change it back so sales inventory , i don't know if you have a customization preventing this as Richard said!

    but i suggest you try the following:

    start by taking backup

    1- update the item type field on the IV00101 table

    2- run a reconciliation and check links

    - As a reference for your update statement, the field to be updated is (ITEMTYPE) with : ( 1 )  Sales Inventory as you will find it (2) Discontinued

    to check the update create a transaction for this item (adjustment, transfer or sales), and check that its working properly.

    Your feedback is highly appreciated,

    Regards,

    Do you have a customization controlling this? I just did it on a GP 2018 installation with no issue. I could have sworn you could not switch it back but apparently you can.

    Hi Richard,

    Thanks for your reply

    i tried that in another instance of GP 2016 and its working fine. is that something that was not available before 2016 ?

    Thanks

    There is no way to change the type from Discontinued to anything else in GP. Once it is marked as discontinued it remains that way.  Do you need to still sell these items? There is an SOP option to allow that.
