Last updated on JUNE 14, 2023

Symptoms

The customer is looking for an existing process that would allow them to cancel purchase orders. The orders are created with an A1 hold code.  If the order has not been approved within five days the customer would like to automatically, via batch, remove/approve the A1 hold code from the orders based on data selection, date range, etc. and cancel the order detail lines similar to the functionality within the Purchase Order Entry (P4310) application, update all tables, and write the Purchase Order Ledger (F43199) record(s).

Steps:

1. In Purchase Order Entry (P4310) create an order with the processing options set for an A1 Hold Code.
2. Work With Orders Awaiting Approvals (P43081) inquire on the order. Reject the approval. 
3. In Purchase Order Entry (P4310) inquire on the order and cancel the line(s).
