Yes, we are using a stock Method Estimate screen. Inactive items are showing up. Would appreciate if you look into it.

I just want to follow up on my post. By default, estimate items should only be showing Active items. If you're looking at a stock Method screen and it's showing inactive items, I can ask the dev team to look into it. Please confirm.

How do we get it to show only Active Items?

Great question! I just finished some customization on my end and had to do something very similar.

Create a copy of the QuickBooks_Estimate screen and open up the screen designer to edit this page. Once you have your copy open click edit on the grid for EstimateLine. On step 2 of editing click the Advanced link for the Item field. On this page you'll see a Filters section and you should be able to build a filter to only show Active items.

When we create an Estimate our Item drop down includes Inactive Items. How do we get it to show only Active Items?
