Cancel/suspend acquisitions


Home Prev	Chapter 5. The Acquisitions Module	Next

You can cancel entire purchase orders, line items on the purchase orders, and individual copies that are attached to a line item. You can also use cancel reasons to suspend purchase orders, line items, and copies. For example, a cancel reason such as Delayed Publication, would indicate that the item will be purchased when the item is published. The purchase is, in effect, suspended rather than cancelled, but the state of the purchase order, line item, or copy would still become cancelled.

Cancel/suspend copies

You can cancel or suspend line items that are in a state of on order or pending order.

Select the Copies link.
Click the Cancel link adjacent to the copy that you wish to cancel.
Select a cancel reason from the drop down menu that appears, and click Cancel copy.

Cancel/suspend line items
