Give the user the opportunity to clear off holding balance

This is regarding case TS019399025.

In general it is possible to close POs for rotating items (due to user error) before the receiving process is complete which lead to a holding balance, that nobody can ever get rid of.

Reproduction steps:

1. Create a PO (any rotating item, any qty)

- Purchase order -> PO Line -> Rot Item -> approve PO

2. Go To Receving App and Select Ordered Items (do not receive rotating item) => Receipt will be WASSET

- only chose receive ordered items - select items and return with OK

3. Go To PO and Close the PO, ignoring all warning

Result: The Holding location will have the qty, which we can never get rid of.


We would like any action to either reopen the PO in order to void or complete the transaction.

Or rather clear of the holding balance, in terms of a write - off scenario, which would be the financially correct manner.
