Fishbowl: Cannot delete sales order with status of [status]

Sales OrderSales Order

What it means

Sales orders progress through statuses as they’re processed. Once an order reaches certain statuses in that lifecycle, Fishbowl prevents deletion to maintain your audit trail and record integrity. The exact status that’s blocking deletion appears in the full error message.

What to check

  • What is the current status of the sales order? (Check the order detail view.)
  • Has the order been shipped, partially shipped, or invoiced?
  • Verify whether any fulfillment or invoicing activity has been posted against it.
