Appian terminate process when user navigate to another URL

Question

I have a list interface A added under Site, and once user click on each individual item in the list, it start a process P1 (no process starting form). In the process, it initially set some variables and then open an summary interface S1. 
 Now, as my site have A,B,C,D interfaces added as pages, I want to terminate process P1 once I jump out from S1 by clicking any of the A,B,C,D button on the navigation bar in main menu. 
 How do I achieve that?

If you use a start form, the process is only started once the user submits that form. If the user navigates away, nothing happens. 
 Keep in mind that Appian is not a UI toolkit by nature and all (most) design decisions are made on purpose to support the automation of business process operations. Off course, you can use Appian in a different way, but then might find yourself in a fight against the platform.
