Close a purchase order: done, read only from here

POST /pos/{poId}/close

From received or invoiced it simply ends the order. From authorised or partially-received it is a short-close, and remainder says what becomes of undelivered quantity: cancel withdraws it from inventory (inventory.incoming-cancelled per outstanding line, keyed <poId>:<sku>:close; 502 InventoryUnavailable while it is away, the close finishing later) and marks it cancelled on the line; keep leaves the shortfall on the lines for supplier follow-up; omitted, the organization's shortClose setting decides. 409 PoNotClosable on a draft or a cancelled order. Appends purchasing.po-closed. Idempotent by state: an order closes once, so a retry on a closed order is acknowledged and appends nothing.

Access

Retries

Idempotent by state: an order closes once, so a retry on a closed order is acknowledged and appends nothing.

The panel writes this call in other languages. It does not send it: Manifold's APIs do not take calls from a web page on another site, so run the call from your own code or terminal. The whole API as OpenAPI: purchasing-manager.openapi.json. Base URL https://purchasing.getmanifold.io.

Errors

Every refusal is a status and a JSON body whose _tag names it. A refused call changes nothing.

`401`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`Unauthorized` reason	The token is missing, expired or not one Manifold issued.	Get a fresh token and send the call again.
`TokenAlreadyUsed` tokenId	A single-use app token was already spent.	Mint a new token for this call.

`402`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`SubscriptionRequired` status	The organization's subscription has lapsed, so writes are refused.	An owner settles billing. Reads still work meanwhile.

`403`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`TenantRequired` userId	The token names no organization.	Choose the organization, then get a new token.
`ScopeRequired` required	The token's roles do not grant the scope this call needs.	Ask an owner or admin for a role that grants it.

`404`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`PoNotFound` poId	No such record in this organization.	Check the id in the path or the body.
`ItemNotFound` sku	No such record in this organization.	Check the id in the path or the body.

`409`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`PoNotClosable` poId, status	The purchase order cannot be closed in its state. `status` says which.	Read the purchase order.
`MirroredFromSource` source	This area is fed by your source system until the organization goes live.	Make the change in the source system, or go live first.

`502`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`InventoryUnavailable` reason	The inventory service did not answer, so nothing changed.	Send the same request again shortly.

`503`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`RequestLogUnavailable` tokenId, reason	The service could not record the request, so it did nothing.	Send the same request again shortly.
