Canceling a Purchase Order

Canceling a Purchase Order

If you accidentally created a purchase order or if the ordered items are no longer needed, you can cancel it. 
A purchase order that is created, approved, or ordered can be canceled. However, you cannot cancel a purchase order after the items have been received.
