We have a line on a purchase order that we want to delete so that the sales order quantity can be updated and then re-added to the purchase order. The receipt entry has been deleted but when we try to delete the line from the purchase order, we get a message that Delete not allowed. Referenced by at least one material activity.
Has anyone run into this?
Can you just change the qty on the PO line? Or is this a Buy To Order PO?
Maybe try adding another line to the order (or another release to the existing line order), then adding another line (or release) for the new order release.
This is a Buy To Order PO
Did you re-open the line and re-open the release? Then unlink the Sales Order, then delete the line.
I think the problem is due to the fact that “unreceiving” a PO Recipt doesn’t delet the original receipt. It just makes a PUR-STK (or PUR-UKN for OTF BTO parts) with a tran qty with the opposite sign of the original receipt.
So you best bet may be to re-receive the original PO qty, make another order line (or add a release to the original line), and make another PO Line (or release) for the newly added additional qty.
This validation I have faced from version 10.2.600.5
Even the normal PO which is approved, once you create receipt line and delete, you will not be able to delete the PO line by approving the PO.
Hi Jillz,
did you get a solution?
