3. 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 back and forth between Receiving and Inventory.
4. Open the holdings record by clicking View holdings next to the appropriate location.
5. Select Actions and then Edit in the upper-righthand corner of the holdings screen.
6. Make sure the holdings statement is accurate and shows the final completed volume before cancellation.

15. A pop-up box will appear where you can indicate why you are closing the PO. For cancellations, you'll want to select Cancelled under the Reason dropdown menu and note when the order was cancelled.
16. To close the order, click Submit. A confirmation message appears and the order’s status changes to Closed.
