Transaction lists—Order Entry

This list supports the enhanced lists interface. Learn more about using enhanced lists.

You can view all transactions in one list, or in lists by transaction type. Depending on your subscriptions, permissions, and transaction definition configurations, you can perform several actions from a transaction list.

View a transaction list

You can view all the Order Entry transactions in one list or you can view a list of transactions by transaction type.

View by transaction type:

  • Go to Order Entry > All > Transactions and select the applicable transaction type.

View all transactions:

  • Go to Order Entry > All > Other transaction activity > View transactions.

If you accessed a list from the top level of a multi-entity shared environment, select the Include private checkbox to view transactions created in all entities.

To view a transaction, select the Document number link. You can also select More actionsView at the end of the row.

To view a transaction, select View next to the transaction.

Edit a transaction

If you have the appropriate permissions, you can edit most details for a transaction that has a state of Draft or Pending.

The following table describes the conditions under which you cannot edit a transaction and gives possible solutions to enable you to edit the transaction:

Condition Possible solution

If the transaction definition Edit policy is set to "No edit".

Change the Edit policy on the transaction definition.

If you have previously printed a document for the transaction and the transaction definition Edit policy is set to prohibit the edit of a transaction after a document has been printed.

Change the Edit policy on the transaction definition.

If the transaction definition has Enable edit of customer set to "Never".

This restricts users from changing the customer in Draft and Pending transactions.

Change the Enable edit of customer setting on the transaction definition.

If the transaction has been converted to another transaction.

Delete the downstream transaction. For example, if you want to edit a sales order that has converted to an OE sales invoice, delete the OE sales invoice.

If a payment has been applied to the transaction.

Received the error message, "A payment has been made against this Invoice / Adjustment."

The only fields that can be edited, even if the payment was reversed, are:

  • Shipping method
  • Item description
  • Custom fields

To edit anything else in the transaction, convert the transaction to a credit memo. Learn how to reverse the effects of an invoice.

If the transaction has had Convert by line processed against it.

Delete the recurring template.

If revenue recognition is enabled, any of the revenue has been recognized from the schedules, and your edits aren't limited to just the fields that trigger a save instead of a repost.

Clear out the revenue recognition.

If the fiscal period is closed.

Open the fiscal period.

If the transaction is shared within a multi-entity company.

Shared transactions can only be edited at the top level.

If you display the transaction list at the entity level, you might see shared transactions. However, these transactions will be listed as "Not owned" by the entity and the Edit option won't appear.

If you have the appropriate permissions, go to the top level to edit the transaction.

If your company is subscribed to the Taxes application and the transaction has been included in a tax return (VAT return or Business Activity Statement) that was prepared and submitted to a government authority using the tax submission process.

Enter an adjusting transaction.

If your company has Event-based recognition enabled in Configure Revenue Management, editing a transaction resets the Delivery status to each item's Default delivery status (which might be "Undelivered").

If your company has event-based recognition enabled, editing a transaction resets the delivery status for each applicable line item.

To edit a transaction:

  1. Open the applicable transaction list.
  2. Find the transaction you want to edit.
  3. Select Edit at the end of the row.

  4. Edit the transaction details as needed.

Delete a transaction

If you created a transaction in error, you can delete the transaction using the Delete function within a transaction list. Deleting a transaction removes the transaction from the system and rolls back all the relevant data in the system to the state it was in before the transaction was created (this includes GL accounts, subledger accounts, and so on).

For OE sales invoices only: If you do not want to delete an OE sales invoice for audit purposes or you cannot delete it, see Delete or reverse the effects of an Order Entry invoice.

The following table describes the conditions under which you cannot delete a transaction and provides possible solutions to enable you to delete the transaction:

Condition Possible solution

If the transaction definition Delete policy is set to No delete.

Change the Delete policy on the transaction definition.

If you have previously printed a document for the transaction and the transaction definition Delete policy is set to prohibit the deletion of a transaction after a document has been printed.

Change the Delete policy on the transaction definition.

If the transaction has been converted to another transaction.

Delete the downstream transaction. For example, if you want to delete a sales order but it was already converted to an OE sales invoice, delete the OE sales invoice.

If a payment has been applied to the transaction.

Received the error message, "A payment has been made against this Invoice / Adjustment."

Even if the payment was reversed, you are not able to delete that transaction. In that scenario, convert the transaction to a credit memo. Learn how to reverse the effects of an invoice.

If the transaction has had Convert by line processed against it.

Delete the recurring template.

If revenue recognition is enabled and any of the revenue has been recognized from the schedules.

Clear out the revenue recognition (Order Entry).

Clear out the revenue recognition (Contracts).

If the fiscal period is closed.

If you have the appropriate permissions, go to the top level to delete the transaction.

If Inventory Control is configured to not allow negative inventory and deleting a transaction would cause the quantity for an item to go negative.

Consult with your system administrator to determine if enabling negative inventory is the correct option for your company.

  1. Open the applicable transaction list and find the transactions to delete.
  2. Select the checkbox next to each transaction.
