When you cancel an ASN or ASBN, the system sends a notification to the buyer. You can always reenter an ASN for the same purchase order shipments at a later time. When you cancel an ASBN, both the shipment notice and corresponding invoice that was issued in the buyer's payable system are canceled.
To cancel a submitted advance shipment notice or advance shipment billing notice:
Click the Shipments tab, and then click Shipment Notices in the task bar directly below the tabs.
On the Shipment Notices page, click View/Cancel Advance Shipment Notices.
On the View/Cancel Advance Shipment Notices page, search for and select the advance shipment notice you would like to cancel.
Note: You can use the advanced search feature to narrow your search.
Click Cancel Shipment Notice. A notification of your cancellation is sent to the buyer.
Note: Canceling a shipment notice cannot be undone. An ASN can be canceled if any of the lines have been received by the buying company. You can cancel an ASBN if the lines have been received and the invoice has not been paid by the buying company.
Alternatively, you can cancel an ASN or ASBN line using the Advance Shipment Notices page. The Shipments in the Advance Shipment Notice region has a Cancel button that you can use to cancel ASN or ASBN lines after receiving and/or invoicing are complete. Select the ASN or ASBN line or multiple lines, and click Cancel. This will remove the lines from the ASN / ASBN.
After the supplier has cancelled a shipment in the submitted shipment notice, the shipment goes back to the purchase order and is available to be taken up in the next shipment notice.
The supplier can edit a shipment in the shipment notice after the buyer has partially received that shipment.
