PI Administrator Delete Inactive Record overview

Product Import > Administration > PIA Reports > PIAD

Function acronym: PIAD

Use this report to delete those records in update files that have an Inactive status.

Records with this status are updated records. That is, those records set to be Ignored during the update process. The update code is checked by the system, looking for either Update or Ignore, before deleting the record.

The update code is set during the import process depending on defaults defined in PI Price Cost Multiplier Setup and PI New Product Default Setup. It can also be set manually during PI Entry Edit Product Update File.

PI Administrator report functions (PIA Reports) should be performed by a designated System Administrator. Most functions should not be performed without first completing the prerequisite setup procedures. We recommend that you use your test company until you are completely familiar with these functions. Updating functions in your test company does not adversely affect your permanent files, with the exception of PI Import Definition Setup records. PI Import Definition Setup records are not specific to one company; any changes made to these records are viewed in all companies.
