Does anyone know why when you create a purchase order in GP (from PO Entry form), and you have multiple line items to order and you have a qty cancelled, it includes those qty's in the price. For example I have a purchase order that I am looking at and 500 pieces were ordered, and 500 cancelled. However the pieces are included in the subtotal, taxes, and total pricing? Any idea why these wouldn't be excluded? Thanks.

Are you talking about when you print the PO? At the time you print there is an option to include canceled items. See if that is marked.
 
No, on the PO itself. When you cancel a line item, the subtotal, tax and total doesn't change. It doesn't adjust to the current change. So the totals are calculated with the cancelled item, rather than only the items being ordered.

When you print the PO to send to the supplier, the printed copy of the PO, displays all of the correct information in the PO, except for the tax total. The subtotal price only includes ordered items, not cancelled items, but the tax is calculated with all of items, cancelled and ordered. This information ends up being incorrect and causes confusion with the supplier and gives the incorrect pricing. Any ideas, is this a GP glitch or is there a tax setting somewhere? Thanks.
