An inactive position is represented by any of the above icons but with a red warning circle added to the corner. An inactive position means that the position has been defined by the administrator as a position that should no longer be used or which should not be available in the position catalog. In Metis Smart Quotes, the inactive position cannot be found through search functions and can no longer be added to offers. However, if the inactive position is already in an offer, nothing will change in that offer besides the icon for the inactive position. |
