Void Authorization

The process to void an authorization for a contract is available through the Accounting Authorization Tab. Authorized users can also void authorizations using the Construction Tree Structure in the Construction Window.

A user must be authorized to edit authorization information in the Accounting Authorization Tab.
The Authorization cannot have been published.

To void an authorization for a contract:

Search for and select a contract from the Select Contract drop-down menu.
Navigate to the Accounting Authorization Tab.
Right click on the authorization to be voided in the Authorization table.
Select "Void authorization" in the context-sensitive menu.
A confirmation window will appear.
- Click on the Yes Button.
Note that a notification window will appear, indicating that the authorization has been voided.
- Click on the OK button.
Note that the "Authorization Status" column for the authorization will change to "Voided."

An indicator will also appear in the Construction Tree Structure and the corresponding Authorization Window to indicate that an authorization has been voided.
A voided authorization can be un-voided.
Users are prevented from saving changes to a system item to which changes have already been made. This prevents concurrency errors.
