Designate inventory item codes as non-stock, don't track at all in Spectrum

We are constantly fighting 'non-stock' inventory items in the inventory module. We have item codes that exist in the library of codes to use, but they were either set up in error or are no longer used as real inventory items and we would like to avoid tracking them at all. We are using the ! in front of an item code to designate it as non-stock, but there is still room for human error if someone selects the actual code.


We would like to designate items as non-stock and just have the code exist so that it can be used on purchase orders and AP invoices when purchased directly to jobs. We do not want them touching a warehouse or being tracked by the inventory module in any ways.
