- On the “Products: Edit item” page, navigate to the “Optional Attributes” section (navigate using the Next button, or the drop-down in the upper right)
- Locate the “Discontinued” listing and click the “Yes” radio button.
- If desired, type in the replacement (manufacturer number) part for the discontinued item in the Replacement Part search box. The system will begin searching the full product catalog after three characters have been entered into the box.
- Once the replacement item has been located, select the item from the list of results and then click “Save” or “Save and Exit” at the bottom of the edit page.

When adding that item on a quote or sales order, the user will see the “DISCOUNTINUED” designation and the replacement part underneath the line item description. Clicking on the replacement part number will take the user to the replacement item’s product page.
