Inactive Manufacture part Definition

Not sure if this is right idea of a inactive manufacture part does but the question is:
If i have inactive the manufacture Part under Qualified Manufacture Maintenance, Can a PO still be open with this inactive manufacture part?

Example here:
I have inactive MPN (ABR)535-10983-1-ND under Qualified manufacture, when i try to open a PO i can still select this (ABR)535-10983-1-ND and proceed with opening a PO?

Thought the idea of inactive this manufacture part is so that PO can not
be open for this manufacture part, in this case (ABR)535-10983-1-ND.
