Hey, so I'm new to Business Central, and I was wondering if there is any way I can delete duplicate Charts of Accounts, and G/L entries. So, I migrated data from GP to Business Central using the Cloud Migration services, and I don't why but I rerun the whole process again, so now I'm stuck with duplicate charts of accounts and g/l entries, is there a way I can delete those? 

Thanks in advance for your help!

    Not to state the obvious, but why not just setup a new database or company and redo the migration only once.

    Deleting GL entries is NEVER recommended.

    Hi

    It is a chance that some developers find a method to delete g/l entries but this is not recommend it. Can you roll back the entire migration in order to have a fresh as Nitin suggested?

    Hi Harsh Patel ,

    As you have mentioned that you already completed the migration from GP to BC but rolled back, now you are doing the same activity again, and thats is the reason when you are trying to migration again from GP to BC its finding the same data and you are facing the duplicate error.

    Not sure If I am understanding correctly.
