Jim,
  I think I need to be more clear on a few items.
1) All inventory changes should be listed on the srequest.
2) If you defunct the file, it will not exist in the steel pool.  If you
  wish to use the version of the file from the PTA pool (where you are
  backed), you need to revert the file.
3) If you are removing all the objects that go into a .mod, then the 
  .mod needs to be removed from the inventory (.mi) file.  If you are
  removing a few objects in a .mod , but the .mod is still being used,
  you need to change the files file.

Let me know if you still have questions...
Mike Martin
