I'm looking for a way to cancel a "batch" of process instances. In an older version (6.7) we had a smart service "Cancel Process", that I believe was part of the Process_Management_Services_1.0.0.jar. Is anyone using that plugin in v7.11? I wanted to check before adding it my 7.11 install since it has been awhile since the plugin has been uppdated

@sreerajm Understood, may I please know what role(i.e. Process Administrator/Editor/Manager/Viewer/Initiator) does XXX play in the process?

Just in case, if you aren't aware, you can check the security of the process as mentioned under 'Updating Security Settings for a Running Process' section at https://forum.appian.com/suite/help/16.1/Configuring_Process_Security.html.

Ideally the privilege required to perform the operation as desired by you is 'Process Administrator' as per my knowledge. You can understand this by seeing the table 'Making Process Edits' at https://forum.appian.com/suite/help/16.1/Configuring_Process_Security.html which specifies that 'Stop or pause a process' action can be taken only by 'Process Administrator'. In short, XXX can cancel the operation if and only if XXX is 'Process Administrator' of that process.

Else you can cancel the process under 'Administrator' context, and you doesn't need to bother about privileges in this case.

Please do let me know if you have any follow-up questions and I would be happy to answer for you.
