Canceling Tasks

Task owners and the Close Administrator can stop a running task at any time. When you cancel a task, the task status changes to Closed. Pending tasks with the task as a predecessor cannot run. If you have a sequence of tasks and you want to cancel the entire sequence, you can cancel the first task in the sequence.

To cancel a running task:

  1. Select a task, and select Actions, then Open. and select the Properties or Related Tasks tab.
  2. From the Task Actions page, select Actions, then Abort.
