I am creating a purchase order with item A, B and C.
For my next purchase order Item A, B and C should not be available in my product list on my purchase order form.
Can someone help me on this?
Thanks

If this is a frequent process, you'd need to program the Odoo not list the products on a PO if they have been previously added on a PO that is in status other than cancelled/draft.
If this is not a very frequent need, you can simply go into the products and uncheck "can be purchased" on the product so it wouldn't show up on future purchase order product options. If once you order these items you'll really be done with this (as in - this is some kind of special service you are buying) - then you can also "archive" the products. In either case, future PO's will not have them as available selections.
If you deal with products that are similar but unique, you may be better off with enabling the use of "serial numbers" and then process the products with the same "product", but record with different serial numbers when receiving/shipping them.

Imagine one day, you will have to create a PO automatically( not doing it via interface). In this case, the creation of the second PO will pass with no problem. Therefore, the way you want to achieve this is not perfect.
I would recommand that at the validation of the PO, you check whether there's already a not valide Po with at least one same product or not. if there is at least one, you raise a UserError or any other process you would want to implement in this case ( maybe merging if they have same supplier and update the quantities.. why not).
Hope this helps.
