Canceling a publish transaction

The Publish Queue lists all publish transactions that users have scheduled for publishing actions (publish or unpublish) and publish transactions that have been successfully published and those that have failed. You can cancel a scheduled publish transaction if the transaction is not in progress. When you cancel a transaction, the Content Manager removes it from the publish queue.
