Cancelling ECOs and Revised Items
You can cancel an entire ECO, a revised item on an ECO, or the individual revised components on an ECO before it is implemented. When you cancel an ECO, you can enter comments that explain the reason for cancellation.
Cancelling an entire ECO cancels all the revised item changes and the changes to their associated revised components. Cancelling a specific revised item cancels only the changes that affect that item and its revised components. Once you cancel an ECO you cannot update it, but you can view a cancelled ECO.
Cancelling a revised component only affects that revised component for that revised item. The cancelled component can be viewed in the Cancellation alternative region.
