Void an Order

The void operation is only available for Job Related Purchase Orders.

Voiding an Order refers to recalling this order as it is no longer a valid order for your supplier. You can only void (Uncommit & Unprint) a purchase order if it does not have another element of the system (e.g. a voucher or an invoice) related to it. If you attempt to void a purchase order that has another element of the system related to it, you will be notified that you cannot do this.

Note: Users must be set up with rights to “Void Job Purchase Orders” in user security settings in Systems Administration. This applies to Contract Management, Job Costing and Purchase order Modules.
