For example some items need to have the State changed to "QC". Most items do not need this State. I would like to remove that option of the item does not match specific item. Is this possible?

Hi @MWright1
It will increase technical debt and require a lot of customization. It's better to keep it as is.
Alternatively, you can use Flow Designer to set the state and stage for a specific item, but in that case, you would need to create multiple flows to modify it accordingly.
If my response proves useful, please indicate its helpfulness by selecting " Accept as Solution" and " Helpful." This action benefits both the community and me.

Its bad practice to implement custom state. You have a stage field for this purpose, you should use it. The stage field does not need to be customized to display custom values for a specific item, you can do it by adding a stage in your flow.

Thanks all for your replies.
Unfortunately, we still need to have this new state.
