Here&#8217;s a step-by-step guide to help you through it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Navigate to Workflows<\/strong>: Start by going to the &#8216;Workflows&#8217; section in your system.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Access Workflow Operation<\/strong>: Within the Workflows section, find and select &#8216;Workflow Operation&#8217;, and then choose &#8220;Ongoing workflows&#8221;. This will display all the workflows that are currently active.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Locate the Desired Workflow<\/strong>: Look through the list of ongoing workflows to find the one you wish to close. The list is at the bottom of the screen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Open Workflow Details<\/strong>:\n<ul>\n<li>Click on the &#8220;process icon&#8221; (which resembles a  flowchart) located to the right of the workflow you want to close. Alternatively, you can click on the workflow&#8217;s list entry and then select &#8216;Details&#8217;.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>This action will open a detailed view of the running workflow.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Close the Workflow<\/strong>: In the top right corner of the detailed view page, you&#8217;ll find the &#8220;Close workflow&#8221; button. Clicking this button will terminate the workflow process.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Confirmation for Task Handlers<\/strong>: After the workflow is closed, if anyone tries to access any open tasks associated with this workflow, they will see a notification stating &#8220;Request has closed&#8221;. This indicates that the task is no longer active due to the closure of the workflow.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"785\" src=\"https:\/\/www.help.headlight.tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/image-1024x785.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1022\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.help.headlight.tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/image-1024x785.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.help.headlight.tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/image-300x230.png 300w, https:\/\/www.help.headlight.tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/image-768x589.png 768w, https:\/\/www.help.headlight.tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/image-50x38.png 50w, https:\/\/www.help.headlight.tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/image-60x46.png 60w, https:\/\/www.help.headlight.tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/image-100x77.png 100w, https:\/\/www.help.headlight.tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/image.png 1062w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Closing an ongoing workflow and its associated tasks is a straightforward process.
