Line items from Purchase Orders can be voided if a user has generated and placed the purchase order. For example, if the item is unavailable it may need to be voided. Employees will always have access to void their own line items; extra permission can be given to void others'. Voiding a purchase order cancels all or some of the line items in a submitted purchase order.
Please Note: Line items cannot be voided if they've already been invoiced.
Please Note: If you void and unvoid the line items, the unvoided line items reappear on the Place Purchase Orders page with a new PO number.
