I see there is an option to Confirm,Cancel or Freeze a PO.  What does Freeze do?

Hi,

You can stop a planned or released purchase order by selecting Freeze in the Operations menu. The purchase order receives the status Stopped.

  • The purchase order is stopped and can not continue in the order flow until you have released it.

    If there are manual peggings connected to the purchase order line, you will be notified

Activate the purchase order by selecting Release in the Operations menu. The order status is updated to Released and the purchase order is ready to continue in the order flow.

Hope this information helps.

Best regards,

Malsha

PO freeze will temporarily stop the progress of a purchase order. This could be due to a temporary no-go/hold on a PO proceedings but with the intention of Release and Continue with in the coming future once Dates/Quantities and other related attributes are finalized.
