You'll have to keep record of the notification ID. And then in your method, cancel the notification with that ID.

On How to cancel the notification, here's the link

Add this code where you set notification.

SharedPreferences prefs = this.getSharedPreferences(
      "com.example.app", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
prefs.edit().putInt("ID", id).commit();

Add this to your onClick listener which is called when you press YES.

SharedPreferences prefs = this.getSharedPreferences(
          "com.example.app", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
int notificationId = prefs.getInt("ID");

And now using this notificationId, canel the notification.

Store the notification ID in SharedPreferences so that you can access it in your activity(dialog). – Tejas Nov 21 '13 at 05:57
