Sometimes a HCM Process just needs to be deleted (cancelled). I’ve found that occasionally there will be a hung request out there that no user is able to process. It only happens very rarely, but being able to quickly cancel the request and any associated workflow is a handy thing to do. So here is a quick and dirty program which allows you to choose a process by reference number and cancel both the request and any workflows associated with it. thanks..

Wow! Very nice. I usually have to do a “Stop Process” process for clients that is similar to this, but this is really nice too! Thanks for sharing and KEEP BLOGGING!
Why not use function module HR_ASR_WITHDRAW_PROCESS?
Thanks Smuli. I may use this function now that you have alerted me to it. (:->
However, the code above allows using any status and not just WITHDRAWN. Also, the other benefit is that there is not an auth check.. But, either way, as long as the job gets done, it’s all about keeping the clients happy.
