Andrew, thanks for your above. As it so happens, with regard to the specific account, there was no bal or current transactions. It was an old account we were working to revive & kept all the back & forth history of calls & notes on conversations. These to us were important & that is why when this issue came up, I got steamed. Data is not restricted to an A/R balance or a date of last A/R transaction. Just because he has not bought in a while, does not mean we want to make it easier to get rid of his history. You say deleting an account in A/R was to difficult, well it should be and any user running a business should understand that.
