QUESTION
When deleting transactions with Rightworks Transaction Pro Deleter, what is the order that transactions should be deleted?
RESOLUTION
When deleting transactions with Deleter, the related transaction must first be deleted. For example, QuickBooks Online will not allow an Invoice to deleted until the related Receive Payments is first deleted.
Below is the recommended deletion order for transactions:
Sales & Accounts Receivable
Deposits
Receive Payments
Invoices
Sales Orders
Credit Memos
Sales Receipts
Purchases and Accounts Payable
Bill Payments
Bills
Item Receipts
Vendor Credits
Credit Card Charges
Credit Card Credits
Checks
Purchase Orders
Other Transactions
Transfers
Journal Entries
Lists can be deleted (made inactive) at any time. QuickBooks Online will not remove a list item (Customer, Vendor, etc) if it has any related transactions.
