1. In the Receiving app record of the cancelled serial, delete all pieces populating the Expected field by clicking each individual piece (if we know we won't be receiving the issues) and selecting Delete.




2. Open the Instance record in the Inventory app by clicking on the title at the top of the Receiving record, which is a link. You'll want to open the link in a new tab so you can easily migrate navigate back and forth between Receiving and Inventory.
