Canceling Processes
The Process app offers you process cancellation options. For active processes that allow cancellation, a Cancel button is shown to the right of the process. Whether a process allows cancellation or not is defined by the process provider (for example, Asset Management or Production Management) and process configuration.
Note the following limitations for canceling Asset Management processes:
The cancellation feature is only available for processes that have been configured to support cancellation.
You can only cancel parent (top-level) processes.
If you cancel a parent process, the cancel information is send to all child processes. Only if the process configuration of the affected child processes allows cancellation, the child processes are also canceled.
If you cancel a process, its user tasks are canceled and removed from the Tasks app.
To cancel a process underway:
*Click the Cancel button located to the right of the active process.
While the process is being canceled, the State column shows the status “Cancelling.” As soon as the process is canceled, the status “Cancelled” is shown. Depending on the process configuration, the status might also be “Completed” or “Failed.”
The Cancel button is removed from the process. For Production Management processes, a Retry button might be shown.
(Production Management only) To retry a canceled or failed process:
*Click the Retry button located to the right of the process.
