Explanation

Phase-out means, that a device, software or other product is no longer in focus of marketing or is no longer manufactured. The phase out process is planned and announced in time to allow customers to prepare for the successor product or other modifications. This planning normally comprises the following steps / milestones: Order Stop for the Phase-Out Product
