Human Factors; Procedure
Upon arrival into DEN; we received 3 different arrivals (ANCHR; WAHUU; and KOHOE). Each installation required sequencing of the arrival to the RNAV (RNP) Z 35R. We accomplished and verified each time; but on the final sequencing DONNT and BAARK did not drop out so that when cleared the approach; with LNAV and VNAV engaged; the aircraft on autopilot did not turn at MSIMS or descend out of 11;000 feet as required. At the same time we became aware of this discrepancy; ATC called; queried and canceled approach clearance; with a vector and descent to 9;000 feet assigned. Once on the vector for a visual final; the aircraft was flown manually to land on 35R. Tower directed us to call TRACON upon gate arrival. I spoke with a Supervisor; and explained the error in sequencing and subsequent actions to comply with ATC guidance. No further discussion ensued and I was informed there was no loss of separation.
B757 Captain reported a track deviation occurred on arrival into DEN following the assignment of three different arrivals from ATC.
