U can cancel it from SM37 using the STOP button but it will take some time to make the rollback activities. So the job is stoped in SM37 goto SM50 and delete the job.

Hi ,

Double click on the active job and click <b>job details</b> button. From here note the application server and process id(PID) for the job.

Now go to transaction SM51 and double click on the application server name . you will get a list of jobs executing on that server. Select the job checkbox and goto menu <b>Process->Cancel without core</b>. Now come back to Sm37 and check , the job will be cancelled.

Sometimes it does not get cancelled or still shows the active status because it does not fully get diconnected from the process id. So you can check the job from SM37 by going to SM37 and goto menu Job-> check active job.it will make corrections to the job.

Hope this helps.
