Deleting publications to deactivated GLNs

[collin_kindred]

When deleting a publication to a deactivated subscriber GLN, I receive the following error:

Publication DELETE for ... resulted in a validation error

~~201-Invalid subscriber GLN (...)~222-Publication does not exist to perform the DELETE operation

The issue is that because I'm not able to delete these publications, filtering items by "Published Items = Yes" results in false positives.  Evidently, the publications to the deactivated GLN count as valid publications!

Is there a way I can remove the publication without running a DELETE operation?

Hello @lflanary and team.  For UNFI, we are working to resolve this issue for our customers who were not able to delete all of the pubs to the obsolete GLNs before they were deactivated.  Are you saying you see this for another recipient GLNs and if so, which ones?

The GLN's involved are all old SuperValu but yes there is more than one. 0041130079115 and 0041130079146 are a couple of examples.

Hello and yes, those UNFI GLNs are included in a project we are working on to try to help our customers who still have publications of those GLNs. I am hoping that wraps up in December but it is a huge amount of data to remove for almost 30 GLNs and we do not want to break Prod IM while removing these. More to come...

@CommunityJedi22 Just wanted to check in and see if there were any updates on this.  Thank you much!

Hello @collin_kindred and thank you for reaching out.  Our engineering teams are working on all of the changes for the upcoming Large release in May.  Once that is complete we will have more resources to help me complete that project.  I will know more then.  Thank you for your patience.
