Purchase Cancel, Reverse & Reset
Cancel, reverse, or reset validated purchase orders, receipts, and vendor bills with a full audit trail.
Overview
In standard Odoo, once a purchase order, receipt, or vendor bill is validated, the system locks it down — undoing a mistake usually means manual workarounds that are slow and easy to get wrong. Purchase Cancel, Reverse & Reset removes that dead end.
Built by TechUltra Solutions, the module adds Cancel, Reverse, and Reset to Draft actions across the purchasing workflow. Documents can be corrected after validation while data integrity is preserved, so stock moves and accounting entries stay consistent.
Every action is logged for traceability, and reversal audit logs are visible only to users with the Reversal Manager role. Configurable policies and access rights let a finance lead decide who is allowed to cancel a bill or reverse a receipt, and an Include Dependencies option keeps related documents in step.
Key features
-
Advanced purchase order cancellation
Cancel purchase orders that have already been validated, without the manual workarounds standard Odoo would otherwise require.
-
Reverse receipts and vendor bills
Reverse validated receipts and vendor bills so stock moves and accounting entries can be corrected after the fact.
-
Reset documents to draft
Return a purchase document to the draft state, with valid state rules applied so the document moves back through the workflow cleanly.
-
Dependency-aware with user control
Related documents are handled together, and an Include Dependencies option lets the user decide whether linked records are cancelled along with the main document.
-
Audit trail and security
Every cancel, reverse, and reset action is logged. Reversal audit logs are available to users who hold the Reversal Manager access rights.
-
Configurable permissions
Access rights control who can run sensitive operations such as cancelling a vendor bill or reversing a receipt, so changes stay with authorised staff.
-
Clean, user-friendly interface
Cancel, Reverse, and Reset buttons sit directly on purchase documents, giving teams a straightforward way to manage the document lifecycle.
