You can activate or deactivate a Supplier for a specific Item.
By default, a supplier’s status at item level inherits from their general status. However, active suppliers can be individually deactivated for specific items.
If a supplier is generally deactivated, they cannot be activated for an individual item.
To deactivate or activate a supplier for a specific item:
Open the item and click the Suppliers tab.
Select the supplier and click Enable/Disable to toggle between Enabled and Disabled status.
Click Save to save your changes.
Inactive supplier is displayed in grey crossed-out text.
In the pixi Desktop view under Item Info, the supplier is still displayed. Therefore, always verify item-supplier assignments in the pixi web application!
Additional Information:
- If a supplier is deactivated for a specific item, it will not be included in supplier order suggestions (for that item).
- If the general supplier status is set to Active, this supplier will be set to active for all items where it is assigned.
- If the general supplier status is set to Inactive, this supplier will be deactivated for all items where it is assigned.
- It is not possible to add an item to a supplier order, when this supplier is deactivated for the item. In this case, the item won't be shown in the item search when adding items manually to the supplier order.
