	Used to undo the stopping of an ~~assignment~~. This is only usable on ''Stop Pending'' ~~assignments~~, and reapplies the ~~assignment~~ so that the WCU will continue running it.

=== Resume assignment ===

Used to undo the stopping of an assignment. This is only usable on ''Stop Pending'' assignments, and reapplies the assignment so that the WCU will continue running it. If there is another assignment of the same type currently in ''Pending'' for that WCU, that assignment is changed to ''Stopped'', and will never be downloaded by the WCU.

=== Cancel Assignment ===
Used to undo the application of a new assignment. Only useable on ''Pending'' assignments. The assignment is instantly ''Stopped'' and if there is an assignment of the same type currently ''Stop Pending'' it reapplies that assignment and changes the status back to ''Running''.

=== Stop Assignment ===
Stops the assignment without replacing it, making the WCU not run anything of that assignment type. Useable on ''Pending'', ''Running'', ''Warning'', and ''Error''. Pending assignments instantly enter a ''Stopped'' state while giving the WCU a stop command. ''Running'', ''Warning'', and ''Error'' assignments enter a ''Stop Pending'' state, waiting for the WCU to report it has stopped before changing state to ''Stopped''.

=== Force Stop Assignment ===
Force stopping an assignment is an admin feature meant for WCUs which have been physically disconnected by an operator while having an active assignment. In this situation the WCU will not report to the portal that it has actually stopped the assignment (since it will not turn on). In this case, this feature can be used to place the assignment in ''Stopped'' for tracking purposes. This can only be used on ''Stop Pending'' assignment. If you wish to force stop a running/warning/error assignment, you need to stop it first (using Stop Assignment).

'''Note''' that this will not affect the actual WCU in any way.

=== Stopping assignments and strict resource groups ===
You can use these features on [[Strict resource group|strict resource groups]] to stop all assignments of that type running on the WCUs in that group. <br>
'''Stop Assignment''' will place all the assignments of that type in either ''Stop Pending'' or ''Stopped'' based on their status (see Stop Assignment). <br>
'''Force Stop Assignment''' can be used used on strict resource groups with status ''Stop Pending'' to force every WCU in the resource group to enter ''Stopped'' state (see Force Stop Assignment).

'''Note''' that Resume Assignment and Cancel Assignment can not be used on '''strict''' resource groups.
