Respond to cancellation
The respond to cancellation action allows the supplier to confirm or deny a cancellation that has been initiated by the requester. Cancellations are not allowed if an item has already been shipped. However, it is possible that an item may have been shipped without the record being properly updated, and the deny option allows the request to proceed.
If the cancellation auto-responder is enabled, the user will not need to manually respond to the cancellation.
