How to Cancel an Order
NOTE: Once you cancel an order in Business Central, there is no way to undo it. The only way to re-open the order is to re-key it in as a new order.
CANCELLING THE WORK ORDER
Step 1: Get approval from CE Lead or Director to cancel the order
Step 2: Search for the Sales Order
Step 3: Check the fulfillment status. If the status is Fulfilled, continue to Step 4. If the status is Pending Fulfillment, move on to Step 5
Step 4: Send a message to production to ensure that the order has not been started yet. If the order has been started, we cannot cancel it.
Step 5: Cancelling the order.
Click on Actions > Functions > Cancelled SO
Step 6: A pop-up asking "Do you want to Cancel Sales Document?" comes up. Click Yes. The Fulfillment Status of the order will now change to Cancelled.
Step 8: Leave a user note in the Sales Order explaining why the order was closed.
