How to Cancel a Transaction

The Initiator can Cancel a transaction.

• Cancel is often used if a transaction is submitted by mistake. 
• You can only Cancel transactions that are In Progress.
• A completed transaction cannot be canceled. If you need to cancel a completed transaction the ESM Team may rescind (remove) specific types of transactions. Contact PeopleLink and submit a ticket.
• If you are an Approver consider contacting the initiator and requesting a cancellation, instead of using the Deny option.
  • Important. The Cancel button located at the bottom of Review tasks in your InBox is often mistaken as a way to cancel a transaction. Clicking this button navigates away from the task (so that you may restart it later).
