201397 Deactivating of customizing entries - logistics general Material option to flag data as obsolete.
BLS
“Entries in configuration tables influence the business processes of a
company in diverse ways. Certain configurations might become obsolete or
might even no longer be allowed. In this case, you encounter a problem in
that the corresponding table entries cannot simply be deleted, since they are
still required for the consistency of completed processes. In order to prevent
the use of obsolete entries in future processes anyway, a generic method for
flagging obsolete and prohibited entries has been provided.
Prohibited entries are not offered by the input help function and the direct
entry of prohibited entries generates an error message.”

201398 Deactivating of customizing entries - material master Material
BLS implemented and the check is done only via the foreign key table input value
check.
The fields requested by this IRs are available as input fields in dozens of
screens in different applications with, very often, screen/application specific
implemented input value checks.
To ensure consistency, all screens that contain these fields as input field
would need to be checked and would need to be adjusted in case
screen/application specific input checks are implemented.
Unfortunately this would lead to tremendous additional effort and can’t be
taken up in the scope of the ERP PLM CC project.
