Cancellation of Inbound Shipments

You can cancel inbound shipment lines or entire inbound shipments prior to receiving the material into the warehouse.

Important points to consider when canceling inbound shipments include:

  • Lines eligible for cancellation

  • Cancellation of the entire shipment versus cancellation of shipment line

  • Ramifications of canceling an inbound shipment

Lines Eligible for Cancellation

You can only cancel ASN or ASBN lines that haven't been fully received up to the ordered quantity. In-transit shipment lines, transfer order shipment lines, and fully received lines can't be canceled.

Cancellation of the Entire Shipment Versus Cancellation of Shipment Line

You can cancel one or more lines of a shipment, or you can cancel the entire shipment. If you cancel all lines on a shipment, the entire shipment is canceled.

Ramifications of Canceling an Inbound Shipment

If you cancel an ASN or ASBN line, it won't be available for receiving against the shipment. If you cancel the ASN or ASBN, the entire shipment won't be available for receiving. Once a shipment is canceled, it can't be queried from the Manage Inbound Shipments page.
