When you send a package of documents for approval as described in Send Documents For Approval but later want to abort the approval for any reason, you can do so by canceling the original request.
You must be assigned to the project owner or document controller role to perform this task.
To cancel an approval request
- Open the package you want to cancel. For more information, see View Packages.
- In the Documents toolbar, click Ellipsis and then click Cancel approval
A confirmation dialog appears
- Click Cancel approval
The system closes the package, changes the status to Canceled, and notifies the requester and approvers by email. The approval request requirements determine the resulting status of the documents.
