text: As a Community Owner, you might find the need to set products to an "inactive" state. This might happen if you no longer purchase a particular product from a supplier, or your supplier has stopped manufacturing or has changed a particular product. Inactivating products ensures your reporting is only representative of active products, rather than including limited-time products or products no longer purchased. If you are utilizing our Incidents feature, you will also hide products from being displayed in product drop-down menus within newly submitted incident forms by setting products to Inactive state. Inactivating products also removes any associated incomplete to-dos from the supplier's to-do list.
  If you're interested in setting locations to inactive you can follow the same process below, or view our Setting Locations to Inactive article.
  If you're interested in setting suppliers and their assets inactive, you can check out our Setting Suppliers and their Assets Inactive or Active article.
