Calling $context.cancel in a scheduled task

If I have a scheduled task powershell script that's targeting an OU of users and in that script I were to call $context.cancel in the case of an error happening for a single user. Does that cancel the script for just that user or will it cancel the entire scheduled tasks and it won't run for other users in that OU?

Hello,

It will only cancel execution of the scheduled task for the current user and proceed with other accounts from the Activity Scope.

seting up a scheduled task to move users to thier correct OU. For some we can do this based on employee type and direct to a specific OU. For most of our users we will have to script this to move to the manager's OU.
