How can i force close a PO that was already received? It was received manually, not from the device, and now I can't receive again or create a bill. How can I make it fall off the PO Progress tab?

Hi there, @judys.

I'm glad you've reached out to us. I'm here to help and provide some insights about Purchase Order Fulfillment Worksheet.

In this case, since the Purchase Order (PO) was already received. What you need to do is delete it so you can create a bill. Here's how:

At the top menu bar, click Vendors.
Select Vendor Center.
Click Transactions.
Select Purchase Orders.
Look for the transaction you need to delete.
Click Delete.
Select OK.

That worked. Although I would mention, for the benefit of other users, that the PO will remain in the PO Progress tab until you select “create item receipt” for it. You will get a message that “this PO does not exist in this company file” and then it will fall off the worksheet.

I have another question. Once the status of a PO is “complete”, why doesn’t it fall off the worksheet? What can I do to make it go away?

The QB team is totally wrong on this. In the App on the phone, click the PO, don't receive anything, then click Finish, Then click continue. They will disappear.
