I was trying to setup recurring vouchers, and didn't realize that the "generate recurring vouchers" step would create a payables batch and also release the batch. This is a problem because the vouchers were meant to be an experiment to see how the system works. I did not expect the payables batch to release, and now neither myself or the Accounting Manager can delete the batch! We'd appreciate your assistance with this. Thanks!

Once an AP batch is released you cannot fully delete it. It is possible to delete an un-posted batch using initialize mode and the GL journal transaction screen but that only deletes the GL side and not the AP documents and transactions so you do not want to take that approach. At this point, your only solution is to create debit adjustments to offset the vouchers that were created. Then, if you want, you can do a check run for those vendors which will pick up the vouchers and the offsetting debit adjustments producing zero dollar checks so that the vouchers and the debit adjustments are then closed documents. If you do not want these zero dollar checks and the vendors have, or will have, payable vouchers, you can wait until you need to cut valid checks for these vendors and the process will pick up the bad vouchers and offsetting debit adjustments along with the valid vouchers.
