Topic 192279

Right now I have several jobs (from another project) I will not be able to complete and would like to remove and or delete them permanentely. I tried the abort button but all I got was a change to "aborted by user" or something to that effect. How can I remove them from my "inventory" so to speak. Where's a good old fashoned delete button when you really need one?

Happens automatically during next regular scheduler request.

Thanks Michael,

I thought that was the case, and it is if the job needing to be deleted is at the very top of the "list". But if the jobs needing to be deleted are placed somewhere in the middle, so to speak, nothing happens when I connect to the project for any reason. I hope the next version is equipted with a good old fashioned delete button. There are some things that seem never go out of style, and are in many cases, the best solution to the problem.

Hmmm, that is kind of strange. I've "pick and choose" aborted before and don't recall the position in the task list as making any difference. They still UL'ed and then reported on the next connection. However it's been a while since I did that, so I suppose this could be a new bug.

However, deleteing from your client before they have gone through the process is not a good idea. The project would have no way of knowing you had to abort it for some reason, and thus the deadline would have to timeout before it could be re-issued.
