Just for the heck of it, but not "generally" applicable...
I have one client who has a customer who *frequently" uses the '860' to cancel
an '850 PO'....
We only pick up mail from this customer once per day and it's not unusual that
the same "batch" of inbound documents will contain
both the '850' ("please enter our order for...") *AND* the 860 (" never mind
that order I sent earlier").
What I do is scan the inbound 'batch' and delete any '850' for which I find a
cancelation '860'
What my client (the seller) did is make a business rule that says "if you have
not sent the cancelation by the time we process
purchase orders each day at <whatever time it is> , we cannot accept a
cancelation of that order."
It works in this trading relationship. YMMV.
