Deleting work items

You might want to delete work items, for example, if you created work items in error or if work items are generated for someone who no longer works for the company.

Before you begin

To delete a work item for a task instance, you must have the appropriate role for the task. If you are the task administrator, you can delete the task instance if it is in one of the following states: ready, claimed, running, finished, or failed. If the task instance was derived from a task template, you can also delete the task in the terminated or expired state.
