# Setting a product inactive

> Hide a product from POS without deleting it.

Setting a product inactive hides it from the POS product browser. The product is still in your catalog and can be reactivated at any time.

Use this when a product is temporarily out of stock or out of season.

## Set a product inactive

1. Open the product in the Shopify Admin
2. Toggle the **Active** switch off
3. Tap **Save**

The product disappears from the POS browser on the next sync.

## Reactivate a product

1. Open the product
2. Toggle **Active** back on
3. Tap **Save**

## Inactive vs. deleted

Inactive products are hidden but preserved — all their details, history, and SKU are kept. Deleting a product removes it permanently.
