Terminate, Suspend, or Resume an Instance of a Process

You might want to terminate an instance of a process if it contains errors or if the process cannot continue, such as when an employee has not yet answered his or her messages because of vacation or termination. In this case, subsequent requests for the same process queue behind the original request. Terminating the process in error allows the subsequent requests to begin processing. You might want to suspend an instance of a process if you want other processes to finish before a certain process. You can also restart a suspended instance of a process.
