Product Archive Checks

Find operational dependencies before retiring a product.

See the screenshotsAsk a product question

The problem this app solves

An obsolete product can still have stock, reservations or open operations. Archiving it as part of a catalog cleanup without reviewing those dependencies leaves warehouse and purchasing teams to discover the consequences later.

Run a preflight over selected products and separate safe, warning and blocked results. Managers can resolve the findings and archive eligible records with a retained decision history, without deleting the stock or document history.

Who it is for

Inventory managers and catalog administrators retiring discontinued products or preparing a controlled product cleanup.

Features that support your daily work

  • Preflight first. Check on-hand, reserved, incoming, outgoing, and internal quantities before an active flag changes.
  • Safe triage. The bulk wizard groups selections into Safe, Warning, and Blocked with counts and corrective actions.
  • Manager control. Only Inventory managers can archive; warnings require explicit acknowledgement and hard blockers remain protected.
  • Evidence retained. Immutable audits provide CSV and QWeb PDF output without deleting stock or document history.

A practical example

Illustrative workflow — the available actions depend on your configuration.

A manager selects a group of discontinued items. Preflight identifies products with remaining reservations and produces a correction list. Eligible items can be archived while blocked products remain available until their dependencies are resolved.

Workflow

Select obsolete products and run Product Archive Preflight.

Review Safe, Warning, and Blocked findings with quantity and operation context.

Export the issue list and resolve stock, reservation, or open-operation dependencies.

An Inventory manager archives eligible records and the guard records the result.

Menus and configuration

  • Inventory → Products → Product Archive Preflight
  • Inventory → Configuration → Product Archive Policies

Reports and exports

The product package also includes optional native-app integrations: corvus_product_archive_guard_mrp, corvus_product_archive_guard_purchase, corvus_product_archive_guard_sale. Keep these companion folders alongside the main addon; their manifests determine when the relevant integration is installed.
