How You Cancel Quantities on Transfer Orders

You can cancel quantities on transfer orders by using the cancel action or by updating the transfer order and reducing the requested quantity.

You can cancel an entire transfer order line, cancel the remaining portion of a line after a partial shipment has already been made against the line, or just decrease the requested quantity on a transfer order line.

How you can cancel quantities on transfer orders depends on these scenarios:

Canceling quantities from the Manage Transfer Orders pages
Canceling quantities from applications outside of Oracle Fusion Cloud Inventory Management
Canceling quantities when the transfer order passes through Oracle Fusion Cloud Order Management
Canceling quantities from the Print Cancel Transfer Order Report process
Canceling quantities when the automatically cancel transfer order backorders option is set

Canceling Quantities From the Manage Transfer Orders Pages

When canceling quantities from the Manage Transfer Orders pages, you must decrease the requested quantity if there has already been a partial shipment. You can reduce the requested quantity down to the previously shipped quantity. You can only use the cancel option if there has not been a partial shipment against the line.

Canceling Quantities From Applications Outside of Inventory

When canceling quantities from applications outside of the Manage Transfer Order page, the cancel action:

Cancels the line if there has been no shipping activity.
Automatically reduces the quantity to the shipped quantity if there has been shipping activity.

You can cancel transfer order quantities from requisitions sourced from Oracle Fusion Cloud Self Service Procurement and Oracle Planning. You can also cancel transfer order quantities from the spreadsheet upload or web service in Oracle Fusion Cloud Supply Chain Management.

Canceling Quantities When the Transfer Order Passes Through Order Management

If the transfer order passes through Order Management, you must reduce the requested quantity to the previously shipped quantity. The requested quantity then equals the previously shipped quantity. You cannot reduce the requested quantity to a quantity greater than or less than the previously shipped quantity if the transfer order has been partially shipped in this situation.

Canceling Quantities From the Print Cancel Transfer Order Report Process

When canceling quantities from the Print Cancel Transfer Order Report process, the cancel action:

Cancels the line if there has been no shipping activity.
Automatically reduces the quantity to the shipped quantity if there has been shipping activity.

Canceling Quantities When the Automatically Cancel Transfer Order Backorders Option is Set

During pick release, pick confirm, and ship confirm time, you can automatically cancel the remaining quantities on transfer orders that cannot be fulfilled. The decision to cancel the backordered quantities is determined based on a hierarchy of options set up at the subinventory, interorganization parameter, and inventory organization levels.

When canceling quantities with the Automatically cancel transfer order backorders option is set, the cancel action:

Cancels the line if there has been no shipping activity.
Automatically reduces the quantity to the shipped quantity if there has been shipping activity.
