Hi MariamMC
Thanks for your post. You can delete accounts that you don't need. However:
- you can only delete an account if it has never been used in a transaction, i.e. its balance has always been zero
- if an account is linked to another record, such a card, item or tax code, you first need to unlink it from the record. If you need help finding the records to which an account is linked, see the FAQ below.
If the account has been used in a transaction, you will not be able to delete it, even after deleting the transaction. This makes sure you keep the history of accounts used in transactions for auditing reports.
As an alternative, you can make the account inactive or combine the account with another account to remove it from the Accounts List.
What are the header accounts you are trying to change? Note that top level header accounts, such as 2-0000, cannot be edited.
