Dear Guru's,

We have created a sales order with reference to a bill...after that there is no deliver..so that we have created billing.After that we came to know there is wrong, so we have cancelled bill and afterwards we are trying to cancel sales order..but it is not happening.

Pls help me how to delete the sales order.

Hello,

First of all you need to findout the subsequent docuement. Go to the Sales order VA02 --> Environment --> Status overview. Check the status of the sales order. If subsequent documents are created then the status of the order will be completed.

Then check for the subsequent documents if any. If there is not subsequent documents exesing, then reject the sales order by a reason for rejection.

Hi,

Can you please answer the following to better understand ?

1. Is it order related billing and no delivery exists ?

2. Is this SO consists only 1 item and bill also made for 1 item ?

3. Is there any partial quantity billing happenned ?

It seems that the status of the sales order is not updated in the tables correctly when you have cancelled the bill as "OPEN", the best things would be as follows :

Alternate suggestions :

1. Instead of deleting the item from the sales order/deleting the sales order, please reject it at item level and block the sales order at header level so as not to cause any further processing if this is agreeable to business.

2. Get the sales order programme debugged by ABAP expert, I am sure the status of the sales order can be changed in the debug mode correctly to be as "OPEN", and then you can delete in VA02 - delete.

Hope this helps.

Hi

Follow the steps as, Assuming you have completed Sales order-Delivery-Billing-Released to A/c

=> Cancel Billing doc- VF11

=> Cancel Delivery- VL09

=> if you want to cancel delivery doc-

Go to VL02n - make delivery qty as Zero-

=> Delete Sales order- VA02

Make sure first you cancel all the subsequent documents, than only you can delete the previous documents.
