canceling pro forma invoice

[Former Member]

In case of repair orders, is it possible and recommended to cancel pro forma invoice?

Hi,

Since Pro Forma Invoices have no impact on Accounting , it cannot be cancelled.

Hi Balaji,

It's neither recommended nor possible to cancell a Pro-forma invoice,as its NOT a Billing doc .

its a document like a Invoice given to the Customer before generating the Actual Invoice.

Pro-forma invoice does not effect accounting.

.

Thanks,

Umesh.

Dear Balaji

You cannot cancel the proforma but you can change the status of the same. Go to VF02, give the proforma reference and select "Billing document -- Complete". By doing so, the status would change to "Cancelled".

The pro forma invoice is not a sales document, but a print out (usually from invoice document, sometimes also from delivery document).

Therefore you can only cancel the printout, or you will cancel the real invoice.

Some scenarios that use pro-forma invoices when invoice get's created, but release the documents to accounting later and print the real invoice after realeasing it to accounting.

So if you do not want to create an real invoice, then cancel the invoice after the proforma got printed. But to answer qour question: I doubt that there are many scenarios where it would make sense.
