Joni,
  There have been some real horror stories regarding Inventory Expiration in
TSM versions prior to 4.2.3. In fact, we had the same and similar problems
with expiration while at TSM 4.1.

Get to at least 4.2.3.  But, since support for 4.2 expires April 15, you
might as well go to TSM 5!

Best of luck,
