Cancel Order

If you do not want a Purchase Order to go ahead and still want to keep the PO details, then you have the option of cancelling it. Cancelled is a defined status in the module which tells a PO is inactive but still viewable. A cancelled PO cannot be uncancelled.

To do so,
Click the Cancel Order button on the top-right corner of the page. A confirmation message appears. Click Yes to continue or No to stop the action. If Yes is clicked, the order gets cancelled, and also the PO status changes from Ordered to Cancelled as shown below.
