Cancelling works orders

When you cancel a works order, you cannot process that works order any further.

Upon cancellation, any stock allocation entries are reversed and, where appropriate, issues are returned to stock.

Once cancelled, the works order cannot have stock issued to it, or be marked as completed.

To cancel works orders

Open: Works Orders > Records > Cancel Works Order.

  1. Select the required works order from the drop-down list.
  2. If the works order has been part completed, or is being made to satisfy sales orders, select what you want to do with issued component stock.
  3. To continue, click OK.
  4. The works order status changes to cancelled.

    Allocations are reversed and issues are returned to stock.

    Any necessary adjustments in stock are made directly in the Stock Control module.

  5. If the works order is being made to satisfy sales orders, choose how you want to handle any sales orders attached to the works order.
  6. Click OK to complete the cancellation.
