Action to cancel all other workflows

I have a workflow that has a 'Save' button and a 'Submit', which either saves a form to a SharePoint list or submits it to a workflow depending on some rules I've set.

 

Sometimes, users will submit an item, and then open the same item at a later date to make some changes and submit it again.

 

This works well, however the previous workflow remains. I want to include an action at the start of the workflow that cancels any previous workflow for that same item that may be running. How might I achieve this?

 

Thanks

Hi,

You can at the beginning of your workflow make some check to get running workflows on your current item and cancel them by using Nintex web service. If you want more information on this solution, I can post you an example tomorrow.
