Card Pool Cancellation

You can use this function to cancel a card pool contract. You can create, change, display, execute, deactivate, and delete an order for card pool cancellation.

Cancellation is subject to special cancellation rules. It is also registered in the Card Management system, and the information is forwarded to the processor.

Prerequisites

The card pool product has the feature Cancel Card Pool entered as a permitted process.
The Cancel Card Pool feature has not been locked.
In the Interfaces to the Processor section, the card pool product has the process Cancel Card Pool defined with a valid output mode.
You can find the product settings in Customizing for Account Management (FS-AM) by choosing Product Management Product Definition Card Pool Products .

For each account contract/master contract/card contract/card pool, there may only be one master data change that is subject to release in the release process at a given time. This means that the system locks the underlying contract for the transaction in question until a processor has released, returned, or rejected the first change in the release workflow. Only then can you make further changes.
Reason: While changes made to the account contract/card contract/card pool are being processed, the corresponding release object and various authorization objects control the program flow. For more information, see Authorization Administration in Account Management.

You can find the system settings and other information in the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Account Management (FS-AM) under:
- Release: Contract Management General Settings Release in the Contract
- Authorization: Basic Settings Authorizations
  
  Note
  
  The system generates a work item for the release process if the relevant Customizing settings have been made. For more information, see the Framework for the Principle of Dual Control (CA-GTF-TS-PDC) and SAP Business Workplace sections.
  
  End of the note.
