    Please provide option to stop refreshing dataset after refreshing manually...

    If there are any performance issues in database this would lock down the table...

    I even observed that reports doesnt get published until the refresh is done...

    RE: Stop Dataset refresh

    Sometimes I forget to update the parameters of a dataset and wish I could cancel and fix my mistake rather than waiting for a full refresh and having to start over.

    can't believe we don't have this feature.

    Definitely need this option added. Stuck for over an hour waiting for a refresh to finish and when it did it was due to a dataset error. Wishing I could have killed the refresh before I lost over an hour of time.

    RE: Stop Dataset refresh

    Please yes. For whatever reason, something that takes 5 minutes to refresh will take over an hour if it hits an error. Meanwhile, you have your hands tied unable to take any action while every stakeholder is waiting for you.

    RE: Stop Dataset refresh

    Microsoft can you please add this function. We have reports that get stuck and take out all the resources at the data source end
