we have several vendors that have no activities and no open balances for several years. I'm trying to delete them using the Delete AP History screen (03.540.00), but the process is not deleting any vendors. Does the process works?. We are using Dunamics SL 2011

RE: Deleting vendors

Hi

You can specify the Vendor Status as "One Time" under Vendor Maintenance screen. This status facilitates deleting unneeded vendor records in future periods. The software deletes one-time vendor information from the database when the vendor’s account has no open documents.

Vendors with the one-time status will be deleted when the following conditions are met:

1) Accounts payable detail is deleted.

2) All documents have exceeded the retention period specified in AP Setup (03.950.00).

3) The account has no open documents, outstanding checks, or purchase orders.

4) There is no 1099 box total.

Hope this will helps you.

Thanks & Regards

RE: Deleting vendors

You should check the years to retain vendor history setting in AP setup, may be it need to adjust before delete.
