MA Transaction Type

The Inactive Line flag can be selected on Modification Draft MA transactions in CGI Advantage. The following rules apply to this field on transactions of the MA Transaction Type:

• The Inactive Line flag cannot be set to True on a new line.

• An MA Commodity Line cannot be marked as inactive unless there are no orders or payments recorded against the line.

• When an MA transaction is submitted with an inactive commodity line(s), any referenced Requisition lines are reopened.

• A Catalog cannot be loaded to a MA Commodity Line if the Inactive Line flag is selected for the MA Commodity Line.

• If an MA Commodity Line with a Line Type of Catalog is marked inactive, the Status for all of the associated catalog records on the Catalog Maintenance table is updated to Inactive.

• The Insert, Save, Delete and Reactivate links on Catalog Maintenance will be disabled for all catalog records associated with an inactive MA Catalog line.

• Inactive lines are not copied forward into a target transaction.

• If all commodity lines on a MA transaction are inactive, then the transaction will not appear on the Shopper (SHOP) page.

• When selecting the Inactive Line flag on an MA Commodity Line, the Commodity Line/Commodity Code combination on the current MA transaction version must be the same as on the prior version.

• The Inactive Line flag can only be selected for Renewal Periods that have not passed.

• The Inactive Line flag cannot be selected if the associated Renewal transaction has been submitted for the specified Renewal Period.

• Once a commodity line or component is marked as inactive and the transaction is submitted, it cannot be reversed; instead a new line or component must be entered.

• If the Inactive Line flag is checked for a Commodity Line, all associated Commodity T&C Lines are also marked inactive.

• If the Hide Inactive Procurement Lines flag is selected when printing the MA transaction, then only the active lines are printed. If the Hide Inactive Procurement Lines flag is not selected when printing the MA transaction, then the active and inactive lines are printed.

• If the Hide Inactive Procurement Lines flag is selected when assembling the MA transaction, then only the active lines are assembled. If the Hide Inactive Procurement Lines flag is not selected when assembling the MA transaction, then the active and inactive lines are assembled.
