Sales Order Deletion

[Former Member]

Hello All,

Is it possible to configure SAP to display an extra warning message when trying to delete a sales order with existing subsequent documents? The normal procedure is a confirmation dialog box with Yes, No and Cancel buttons. But I want an extra message to display that the order has subsequent docs upon choosing 'Yes'.

Can this be done on configuration? Or is user-exit the only way to do it?

Thanks a lot!!!

Best regards,

Olyn

hi,

first thing is when we have a subsequent document like an order has a delivery, we cannot delete the order. First we need to clear off all the subsequent documents and then come to the sales order. I guess the screen we get tells, this is not possible ...

to have a customized message displayed we need an access sequence and do the program correction as its a standard VA01 t.code. we dont have any userexit in this case.

Hope it helps. Pl reward if helpful.

Thanks,

Thanks all!

When trying to delete an order, a message prompt appears for confirmation whether to continue with the deletion or not. Is this prompt activated thru configuration (i.e. like in credit checking)? Or is it a SAP standard?

standard

Take the help of ABAPer but as previously mentioned this can be only allowed by system if no subsequent documents are not there

Hi Olyn,

As sadhu right mentioned system will not allow you to delete a sales order if it has any subsquent documents are existing. you will have to first reverse the entire process i.e., Cancel Billing doc / GI doc / Remove picking qty or cancel TO / delete delivery and then only system will allow you to delete a sales order.

It is possible to get the message but not thr any config but by modifying the programme.
