By having the subprocess waiting on a rule event with a boolean pv and setting up my parent process to use a send message node to update that pv in the subprocess i was able to successfully ended all instances of the subprocess.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Canceling all instances of a sub process</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/36270?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 24 Aug 2016 23:58:21 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:a8d95bd8-06c0-441d-94d5-2e635879a329</guid><dc:creator>William Ruck</dc:creator><description>Would it be reasonable for the related action to message the all the subprocesses and tell them to terminate? &lt;a href="https://forum.appian.com/suite/help/16.2/Process_to_Process_Message_Type.html"&gt;forum.appian.com/.../Process_to_Process_Message_Type.html&lt;/a&gt; That way, you ensure that all the subs behave as you expect them to, and you don&amp;#39;t have any lingering instances.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
