Marking a G/L Account Master Record for Deletion

The following describes how you can mark master records for deletion, thus marking the corresponding G/L account for deletion as well. The documentation CA - Archiving and Deleting Application Data describes how to delete and archive G/L account master records. You find this documentation in the R/3 library under CA Cross-Application Functions.

To mark a G/L account master record for deletion, proceed as follows from the general ledger menu:

Select Master records ® Mark for deletion.

Enter the G/L account number and company code, and press ENTER.

If you set the Mark for deletion indicator in the Status in chart of accounts section, the system deletes the G/L account master record in all company codes that use this chart of accounts.

If you set the Mark for deletion indicator in the Status in company code section, the system deletes the G/L account master record in the company code that is listed in the top section of the screen.

Choose G/L account ® Save to delete this G/L account master record.

You can set or remove this indicator at anytime, as long as the master record has not been physically deleted.
