For the triggering of workflow while cancellation of an already approved leave the field “Activate Cancellation Workflow” needs to be set to ‘Yes’.

This workflow will trigger only if the leave applied was in approved status.

In case the leave is still in ‘pending approval’ then the leave will get canceled without any workflow.
