Void Purchase Order in DPO
The Void Purchase Order feature in DPO allows authorized users to cancel P.O.s that are no longer needed without deleting them. Voided P.O.s remain visible for tracking and auditing but cannot be processed further. This guide explains how to void a P.O. and what permissions are required to do so.
How to Void a Purchase Order
- Open the P.O. you want to cancel
- Click the **“X” icon (Void**) in the top right corner

- Confirm the action by clicking: "Yes, void Purchase Order"

You don’t see the X icon (Void) in the P.O.?
Activate the corresponding permission
If you are not an admin:
Contact your DPO Book Administrator to request access.
If you are an admin:
- Open Settings → Users
- Open the relevant User Profile **and go to **Permissions
- Enable: "Can void**"**
- Click Save to confirm your changes

Understanding the Status
Once a purchase order has been voided, it is not deleted.
It remains accessible through the:
- “Voided” filter in the View section.
This ensures full traceability, as Digital Purchase Order never deletes purchase orders and every P.O. ID is retained for documentation and compliance purposes.
