The third tab on the Item Window is the Status Tab and displays the client accounting activity for a particular Item.
Inactive: Select this option if you want to make the Item Inactive. An Item can only be made Inactive if it has not been included on any Proposals, Purchase Orders, or Client Invoices. Inactive Items do not appear on the New Proposal, Invoice, or Purchase Order Windows. Nor are Inactive Items included on any reports in Design Manager. Once an Item has been set as Inactive, it will be moved into the Inactive folder beneath its Project on the Projects and Specifications Window.
Complete: By marking an Item Complete, it will not appear on the New Proposal, Invoice, Purchase Order Windows, nor the Pre-Billing and Client Status Reports. Completed Items will, however, continue to print on other reports. The Complete is similar to the Inactive option. However, any Item can be designated as Complete. The option is often used to assist you in keeping the specification lists on the aforementioned windows more organized and easier to manage. Once an Item has been set as Complete, it will be moved into the Completed folder beneath its Project on the Projects and Specifications Window.
Bypass WIP (optional): When the Auto WIP Accounting option is selected on the Company Advanced Options Window - General Tab, this option will be available. Selecting Bypass WIP will cause the cost of purchases posted from Vendor Invoices to not be recorded in the Work in Process Account, but, rather, to be recorded directly in the appropriate Cost of Goods Sold Account.
