[Version 5.0.2 and later]Terminating a process instance

Before you begin

To terminate a process instance, you must have appropriate access rights as a process administrator.

Why and when to perform this task

You might want to terminate a process instance if the work or documents it represents are no longer needed, if no one is available to complete the process instance, if you have encountered problems with the process template and it needs to be redesigned, and so on.

To terminate a process instance, do one of the following:

Results

This action stops the process instance immediately without waiting for any outstanding activities. Process instances that are terminated are not compensated.

What to do next

If necessary, delete a terminated or finished process instance to delete its associated records from the Process Choreographer database. If you perform instance deletion regularly, either manually or automatically through the auto-delete option in the process flow, the only additional routine maintenance on the Business Process Choreographer database that you need to do is run the deleteAuditLog.jacl script.
