Delete Line Items or Purchase Orders

Learn how to delete purchase order line items and/or an entire order

Updated on June 14th, 2024

Purchase orders that are in progress can only be deleted if there are no line items on them, no items on back order, and no bills linked to that purchase order. If a purchase order has line items, back-ordered items, or bills, you will need to remove all of them and save before you can delete the order.

 

Delete line items

  1. Open the purchase order or back order. 

    The order must have the status of 'In Progress' or 'Pending Approval'.

     
  2. Click the (trash can icon) to delete each line item. Alternatively, click the multi-delete checkbox (lower right). The (trash can icons) will turn into checkboxes so you can select which items to delete, or click the box at the top to select all items.
  3. Once all the items have been selected, click Save.
 

Delete items from Task

If the order has items that are attached to a task and you want to remove them, tick Delete items from Task before deleting each line item.

Forgot the checkbox?

No problem. AroFlo will ask you to confirm, before removing the item(s) from the Task.
 
 
 
 

 

Delete linked Bills

If your purchase order contains bill-related tabs and counters, it means bills are linked to it. You'll need to delete all bills first before being able to delete the purchase order.

See Delete a Bill for instructions.

 

 

Delete the Purchase Order

Once you've removed any line items, back-ordered items, or linked Bills, you're ready to delete your Purchase Order.

Simply click Delete Purchase Order > OK.
