Suppose we have a Purchase Order with around 20 lines, and all lines have been partially received. After discussing with the vendor, it becomes clear that the vendor will not be able to fulfill the remaining order. As a result, you have no choice but to cancel the Purchase Order.
The standard method involves cancelling the delivery remainder for each line individually. However, let’s explore how the new feature can streamline this process, especially when there are more than 30 such Purchase Orders for the same vendor.
Without enabling the feature:
1. Create a Purchase Order. (00000275)
2. Receive a partial qty and invoice it.
e.g. Purchase Order created for Qty 10 and 7 qty has been received and invoiced.
When we try to cancel the Purchase order then we will get below error:
3. The usual way to cancel the remaining qty as Go to the Update line and cancel the deliver remainder.

Let’s create the same scenario again.
We can now try to cancel the Purchase Order using the below option:
The purchase order status will be changed to Invoiced.
and Line Qty as
