Deleting a Product

Once a Product is in the Product Catalog, Quantify allows you to delete it if it is not being used. 

Note: You can only delete a Product if it has not yet been used in a shipment or transaction, and has no quantities stocked at any location. You can, however, move parts that have been used to the Inactive Catalog. To learn more, refer to Moving a Product to the Inactive Catalog. If a product has been used in a shipment or transaction, or does not have quantities stocked at any location, Quantify will inform you as such.

If you wish to move a serialised part to the Inactive Catalog, you can either sell the serialised parts, or scrap them
