The request that you just added with the INGREQ dialog remains in the Automation Manager until you remove it. To remove the vote, you must use the INGVOTE command.
The INGVOTE command runs against a single resource and shows you all of the votes and requests that accumulated against it.

If we look at RMFGAT before you cancel the request, you see this information:

Command ===>

PF9=Refresh PF12=Retrieve The INGVOTE command indicates that it is a vote, not a request, and an input field is not displayed for it. The From Request field indicates the resource that the request was entered against. You have to run the INGREQ REQ=CANCEL command against that resource if you want to cancel the request behind the vote.
