Have another parameter at the Product lifecycle state settings so it can hide no longer used items from item selection lookups (or do it automatically)? E.g. from drop downs when creating BOMs.
The main goal is to omit obsolete products from the selection lists without need to use workarounds like renaming parts to mark them as obsolete.

If the Business Process is 'blocked' the instance should not show up within a drop down for that process. For example if Sales Orders is blocked on a Lifecycle State for the product, version, or variant, they should not display in their respective dropdowns. As we grow with our versions in ECM - this drop down list has no way of managed and will continue to grow.

Seems logical that if a released product is set to obsolete or if it is stopped for sales, purchase, or inventory on the default order settings the item would not show on the drop-down list while creating a order.
