Delete an Accounting Period

You can only delete inactive accounting periods, and you can't delete a period  if it will cause a gap between periods within the cycle.

1. Select Accounting Cycle from the Chart of Accounts menu, and the Accounting Cycle window opens.

2. Click the Cycle Name link, or check the box for the accounting cycle from which you want to delete a period, and click Edit. The Accounting Cycle Detail window opens with the Accounting Periods tab and any previously created periods displayed.

3. Check the box(es) for the periods you want to delete, and click Delete. You're asked to confirm the action.

4. Click Yes. You're notified of successes and failures.
