Canceling A Field Activity

You should cancel a field activity if it shouldn't be (or wasn't) done.

There are situations when a field activity may be canceled automatically by another process in the system, for example:

• If a field activity is created by start/stop and the start/stop is canceled, the resulting field activity is also canceled
• If a field activity is created by a severance event or cut event and the severance or cut event is canceled, the field activity is also canceled

The processes that attempt to cancel a field activity when a related record is canceled do not continue with the cancel under the following conditions:

• The field activity is already linked to a field order (and is therefore considered dispatched to the field)
• The field activity has been dispatched to an external system and the FA's intermediate status is one that does not allow auto-cancellation.
