Terminating sales schedules

If your relationship with a business partner has ended and you want to change the sold-to business partner specific item data, you can terminate the sales schedule. The status of the linked planned warehouse orders or sales schedule lines can affect the termination process.

Created, Adjusted, Approved, or Planned

If you terminate a sales schedule and a related sales schedule line has the Created, Adjusted, or Approved status, the sales schedule line's status is changed to Canceled.

If you terminate a sales schedule and a related planned warehouse order has the Planned status, the planned warehouse order's status is changed to Canceled.

Note: 

If one of the following sales schedule lines is canceled, the results of the approval process are undone:

  • A sales schedule line with the Approved status.
  • A sales schedule line with the Order Generated status for which the outbound process is not yet started.

Order Generated or Released to Warehousing

If you terminate a sales schedule and a linked sales schedule line has the Order Generated status or a linked planned warehouse order has the Released to Warehousing status, the related outbound order line determines whether the planned warehouse order/sales schedule line can be canceled:

  • If the outbound process is not yet started, the outbound order line is deleted and the planned warehouse order/sales schedule line receives the Canceled status.
  • If the outbound process is started, the outbound order line and the planned warehouse order are set to Canceled and the sales schedule line receives the Canceling in Process status.
  • If the outbound order line that is set to Canceled gets the Shipped status, the sales schedule line receives the Canceled status.

Partially Shipped or Partially Delivered

If you terminate a sales schedule and a linked sales schedule line has the Partially Shipped status, or a linked planned warehouse order has the Partially Delivered status, the related outbound order line determines whether the planned warehouse order/sales schedule line can be canceled.

  • Outbound process not yet started

    The outbound order line for the remaining quantity is deleted. The planned warehouse order receives the Finalized status and the sales schedule line receives the Goods Delivered status.
  • Outbound process started

    The outbound order line for the remaining quantity is set to Canceled and the sales schedule line keeps the Partially Shipped status. If the outbound order line that is set to Canceled gets the Shipped status, the sales schedule line receives the Goods Delivered status.
  • The canceled part of the planned warehouse order quantity is updated on the planned warehouse order as the Canceled Quantity. Sales schedule lines linked to this planned warehouse order receive the Goods Delivered status.
  • Sales schedule lines linked to a canceled planned warehouse order have cancellation history records. The sum of the canceled quantities of these history records is equal to the canceled quantity of the linked planned warehouse order.

Goods Delivered, Finalized, Released to Invoicing, Invoiced

If you terminate a sales schedule and a linked planned warehouse order has the Finalized, Released to Invoicing, or Invoiced status, or a sales schedule line has the Goods Delivered, Released to Invoicing, or Invoiced status, you must finish the sales schedule procedure until they have the Processed status.

Sales schedule status

The status of a sales schedule that is terminated depends on the statuses of its planned warehouse orders/sales schedule lines:

  • If not all planned warehouse orders/sales schedule lines have the Processed or Canceled status, the sales schedule has the Termination in Process status.
  • If all planned warehouse orders/sales schedules lines have the Processed or Canceled status, the sales schedule receives the Terminated status.

If a sales schedule has the Termination in Process or Terminated status, no new revisions can be added to the sales schedule.
