Is there a way to fix this?

Issue: We start a SO and mark items for PO. Sometimes, PO is created and gone through the normal process. Other times, PO is created but then customer changes their minds and cancels the order all together. We “cancel” the SO accordingly. But it’ll still show these in the dashboard for “POs to create.”

 

I was able to go in a few, reopen SO and uncheck the boxes. But some, it won’t let me. Gives me an error message saying it’ll cause the inventory ID to go negative. UGH! I’m just REOPENING the SO. I’m not finalizing anything or invoicing anything. There is more than in this screenshot.

​@alexx I can’t assume your process here, but I am assuming the POs to Create GI is based on the SOLine DAC and shows all line items for orders with the Mark For PO checkbox selected? Based on the name, I’m guessing the PO hasn’t been created.  If this is the case, why not just put a condition in your GI to exclude all line items where the Cancelled checkbox is selected?  This would be the least invasive, if my assumptions above are correct. If they aren’t, feel free to provide a bit more info.  I’m sure we can help ya out here

Hi ​@alexx,

I assume you are using a custom GI for “POs to Create.” As @nickcerri32 mentioned, you can add a condition to exclude canceled Sales Orders or Sales Order line item from the GI, so you don’t have to open each Sales Order and manually to uncheck the Mark for PO checkbox.

Also, Acumatica’s standard Create Purchase Orders (PO505000) screen lists items from incomplete order lines that are marked for PO. It should exclude demand associated with canceled Sales Orders through its standard processing logic. You can verify this behavior on your Acumatica version by checking whether the canceled orders appear on PO505000

I would recommend updating the custom GI to exclude canceled orders rather than reopening them solely to remove them from the dashboard.

Hope this helps!
