Note:  If you don’t want to remove a record permanently but 
don’t need it anymore, you can change its status to Inactive. For 
more information, see “Keeping Inactive Parts of your Business 
out of the Way” in Chapter 23. 

 

If you are using Simply Accounting in multi-user mode, you 
cannot remove accounts. Log into Simply Accounting as the 
administrator in single-user mode to remove accounts. 

Accounts 

■ 

The account has a zero balance. 

■ 

The account has no transactions processed against it for this 
year or last. If it does, you can make the account inactive 
and then remove it after the next year. 

■ 

The account is not used as a linked account. 

■ 

If you are using Simply Accounting Pro and want to keep 
financial history for more than two years, you have made a 
note of the account name and number.  

If you need to delete an account, we recommend that you 
renumber it, rename it ”Deleted Account,” and check the 
Omit From Financial Statements If Balance Is Zero box in 
the account record. This will maintain the relationship 
between past and current charts of accounts and ensure that 
the multi-period reports balance.  

■ 

  If you file your tax return electronically, do not remove 

Group or Subgroup Total accounts. They balance the GIFI 
report, as required by the Canada Customs and Revenue 
Agency. Also, be sure to file your GIFI report before 
removing any accounts.
