German connection one has cancelled (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

undone

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'cancelled' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Maybe you can see a link between them that I don't see?

'german connection one' is the wordplay.
'german connection' becomes 'und' ('and' in German - a connecting word).
'und'+'one'='UNDONE'

'has' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for undone that I've seen before include "Brought to ruin or destruction - or not buttoned" , "Brought to ruin or buttons not fastened" , "Ruined - no longer fastened" , "Ruined or dismantled" , "Not bound" .)
