Delete Buys

You may delete both active and proposed buys before the schedule due date as long as there is no related billing, matching, or paying activity. You may not delete a pool buy if spots have been allocated to other buys. While you may delete a buy which includes spots allocated from a pool buy, it is better to unallocate the spots before deleting the buy. Refer to Pool Buying. There are two ways to delete buys.
