"Active" inventory are items which you are currently selling, regardless of whether or not there is current stock on hand.
"Inactive" inventory are items which you do not want to be visible in the Inventory List. This function is useful for seasonal inventory items. If it is not visible, then staff will not have to sort through it and cannot sell the product because it cannot be selected.
