An originating journal is required when trying to delete poproductreceipt

The wrong product was added to a PO and PO Receipts Products.  It is not associated with any WO or anything.  I have quantity set to 0, but I'd prefer to delete it.  However, when trying to delete it I get a Window saying Business Process Error and the text says "An originating journal is required".

 Why can't I delete this?  The PO status is submitted and not yet posted its still as submitted.  I even tried changing it to Draft and then deleting but still same error.

    Hi crham,

    Could you cancel it? Here is a similar example I think you can refer to:

    "An originating journal is required" is an error I haven't seen before, maybe it's related to some customization.
