# Cancel specific number porting

Cancel selected numbers inside a porting request without canceling the whole request.

## Before you begin

Numbers are grouped by **Porting Number Status**. You can request cancellation for a status group, but numbers in
**Canceled**, **Cancellation Pending**, or **Completed** status cannot be canceled.

## Step 1: Open the porting request

1. In the DIDWW User Panel, go to **Phone Numbers > Number Porting**.
2. Open the **Porting Requests** tab.
3. Click **Actions (...)** next to the porting request.
4. Select **Edit**.

## Step 3: Confirm the cancellation request

Review the numbers in the **Request Cancelation** pop-up window, then click **Confirm**.

Note

For porting requests in **In Process** status, cancellations are reviewed by DIDWW staff.

- When cancellation is still possible, the request is approved and the numbers are canceled.
- If it is too late, the request is rejected and porting continues.
