Cancelling an algorithm for a workflow

Cancelling an algorithm for a workflow means that you want to depart from the normal steps in the workflow's algorithm. You will still be able to perform discretionary tests and redraws. You will also still be able to set the final result for the workflow and complete the final report task.

Cancelling an algorithm differs from closing a workflow. Cancelling an algorithm interrupts the algorithm for the workflow, but still allows you to generate a final report for the workflow. Closing a workflow ends the workflow without the option to generate a final report.

  1. Open the view all workflows task.
  2. Select the workflow you want to cancel from the Workflows list.
  3. Click the Details button.
    The Algorithm Summary window will appear.
  4. Click the Cancel automated algorithm button.
    You will be asked to confirm that you want to end the algorithm for the selected workflow.
Any discretionary tests or redraws assigned to the workflow must still be completed. Once there are no pending discretionary tasks, the cancelled workflow will be assigned the result algorithm workflow task.
