Purchase Order Admin

In a current users process, with modifications, they raise a Purchase Order and these are automatically received at the full quantity. They may then Invoice 500 out of the original 1000 received. 

The receipt is for G/L Line Types only. 

If the users know they will never receive the other 500, what is the best way to get the Purchase Order deleted. Business Central will prevent the Purchase Order being received as there is a Qty. Rcvd. Not Invoiced. 

We are looking to automate this process and avoid posting a zero value Purchase Invoice. Is it safe to simply modify the Purch. Rcpt. Line Quantity to match the Quantity Invoiced, likewise with the Purchase Order lines in a routine and then delete the Purchase Order?

    TESDEveloper,

    Given you are working with G/L Line Types, as Kim noted, just change the Original Quantity to the 500. Then you can delete the Purchase Order manually or through the Batch Delete Invoiced Purchase Orders.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks,

    Change your original PO quantity ordered to 500. It will take a customization to automate this.

    There is a routine to Delete Fully Invoiced Purchase Orders, which one you change your PO quantity, will delete the PO when you run the routine.
