Cancel Request

The Cancel Request is the API that will be used by both partners and ReCAP users to cancel a request placed through SCSB. Partners will incorporate the API into their discovery systems to provide the patrons a way to cancel requests that have been raised by them. ReCAP users would use it through the SCSB UI to cancel requests that are difficult to process (an EDD request for a 1000 pages) and replace it with a physical delivery.

The end users (Partners/ReCAP) would persist this data at their end and use it to call this API if the need to cancel arises.
