What do you do if a product has been replaced by amother product and you want the old product to point to the new product.

 

Example:

you type in the old product number in search and when clicking on the old product you are redirected to the new product.

 

OR

 

In the old product there are some text informing about the new product.

In this case you shouldet be able to buy the old product.

There is no built in way of doing this. You can create a custom field on a product with redirect info. When a user finds the old product redirect to the new one using javascript in the template.
