To delete a PO Line, you will need to have the Purchasing Operator Extended role to perform this action. According to the Ex Libris Knowledgebase, “Deleting a PO Line removes it from Alma and deletes any transactions associated with the PO Line.” It will also delete any inventory resource associated with the PO line; however, deleting an additional PO line does not delete the inventory.
The Delete option is available for PO Lines with the following statuses:
In Review
Packaging (Automatic or Manual)
Deferred, Canceled, or Close
A PO line cannot be deleted if:
It is linked to an invoice line.
It is attached to a PO and has been sent to a vendor
It is a main PO line and one of the PO line resources was received or activated
Once a PO line is deleted, it is final. It cannot be retrieved or reopened.
