Editing Inventory Management (section)

==Active vs Inactive Styles==
Active styles are normal products on your web site.  Inactive styles are style that have been discontinued and set to inactive by the subscription system.  They will remain in an inactive state for an extended period of time and are only accessible on your website if the URL is accessed directly (they do not show in your site search results or in collection overview pages).  The inactive state serves two purposes. First, it allows these pages to remain indexed in search engines so users searching for these styles will still find and arrive at your web site and hopefully continue to browse for other styles.  Second, you can view inactive styles in the product manager if you want to add inventory to them after they have already been discontinued, in which case, the style will be made active again in an inventory-only status.  If a style is reintroduced by the manufacturer, the product is automatically set back to active status.
