Well, we tried to use the new system to request awards and accidentally have two full years of scouting on one purchase/advancement report. How do I undo a purchase order?
Hello Patrick,
If the the Scouts have already already received some of the awards. I believe you just mark them as already awarded. And run the report again.
I think marking something awarded even drops it from open POs. If not, @KennethMortello’s method definitely works. Delete the current 578-item PO (which dumps everything back into Needs Awarding Purchasing report). Then, mark everything Awarded that’s already been presented, and regenerate the PO with the shorter list.
ETA:. Thanks to @JenniferOlinger for catching my typo.
@PatrickMcDade - it may help to know how you got to the point of so many items? Were you in scoutbook.com or IA2 ? There are many ways to get past the issue dependent up the path where it started.
POs are saved as they are developed and do not change after awarding items. I use my old POs to verify when items were bought.
I know that’s true after a PO is closed. Is it also true with the PO still open? I thought our AC told me that if I mark something awarded it falls off of her open PO. I could easily have misunderstood, though.
Marking items as Awarded will not change the PO - only the items that appear on the Needs Purchasing Report. The user would need to delete the PO, and then create a new PO.
