## Description

This process will be triggered when a process is canceled. It will notify the configured roles of the cancellation.

## Applies to

This workflow applies at the global level.

## Configuration variables

You can edit the configuration variables directly from the workflow definition page by clicking <img src="/files/yDZuI3skJw21aMCfZ1eF" alt="" data-size="line"> in the upper-right corner of the variables table.

| Variable      | Description                                     | Default value    |

## Start label

The start label is the name of the workflow when it is visible as an action item on a resource page or as a button on a dashboard. You can find the **Start Label** section in the upper-right corner of the workflow definition page.

Click **Edit** to edit the label.

## Start event

A start event is an event that triggers the workflow, for example starting the workflow when an asset is created.

The Cancellation Process workflow starts automatically when a workflow is canceled.

## Roles

The roles define the permissions to manage the workflow. For example, if a certain tasks must be urgently executed but the responsible person is on sick leave, a user with the defined role can reassign that task to somebody else.
