We acknowledge that circumstances can change during the supply chain process. Whether it's due to a canceled order, finding alternative support, or an accidental duplicate entry, there may be instances when you need to cancel a shipping request. Rest assured that canceling a shipping request is a simple process and can be done within the platform by following these steps.

### Locate the Shipment

First you'll need to locate the shipment you'd like to cancel. To do this click on **Shipments** in the top global navigation menu. Scroll the list or use the search field to find the shipment you'd like to cancel.

### Canceling a Shipment

To cancel a shipment click on the box next to the **Shipment ID.** If you have multiple cancellations to make, select all that apply.

Once you have made your selections, an action menu will appear, where you can select **Cancel**.

### Additional Information

Shipments can be canceled at any point before they are approved. Once a shipment is **Pending** or after, you'll have to contact Shippabo's Operations team to see if it can be canceled. Please note that a cancellation fee may be applied, and that shipments can **not** be canceled once they have been picked up from the origin port.
