The Supplier needs to cancel the ASN and resubmit it for the following scenarios:

1. When Supplier omits to enter Serial Number for Serialized Commodity codes.
2. When ASN got stuck due to connectivity issue in S4.
3. When the Supplier submits Invoice first instead of the ASN (ASN should be submitted first prior to sending Invoice for Asset POs).
4. For Any miscellaneous errors made during submission.
