It was recently brought to my attention that when you CANCEL a sales order in progress, it does NOT actually "delete" the sales order. Why is this? You have three action buttons (pictured below) when entering a sales order in Sage 100: ACCEPT, CANCEL and DELETE.
It appears that once you get to the point of entering LINE ITEMS on the order, if you decide to "CANCEL" what you have done (i.e. CANCEL the order), it doesn't actually cancel the order. Rather, it appears that Sage 100 will "auto-ACCEPT" the order. To me, CANCEL would mean "I do not wish to continue entering the order" but evidently this is not the case. Can someone please explain what the purpose of the CANCEL button actually is? And how does it differ from the DELETE button? Thanks in advance for any input.
