What Happens When You Deactivate a Product
When a product is deactivated:
It remains in your Stockroom.
It is marked as inactive.
It will no longer be available for selling.
You can reactivate it later.
Deactivating a product does not delete the product.

The product will be moved to the inactive products list.

You will see products that have selling disabled.

Deactivate vs Delete
Deactivate a product if you may sell it again later.
Delete a product only if you want to remove it from the active Stockroom product list. Deleting is more permanent and should be used carefully.
