Delete task work items
You might want to delete task work items, for example, if you created task work items in error or if task work items are generated for someone who no longer works for the company.
To delete a work item for a task instance, you must have the appropriate role for the task. If you are the task administrator, you can delete the work item if the task instance is in one of the following states: ready, claimed, running, finished, or failed.
If the task instance was derived from a task template, you can also delete the work item if the task instance is in the terminated or expired state.
