Delete Purchase Orders Workspace

Use this workspace to delete purchase orders that have been closed before a given date.

This process removes all of the information about the purchase orders from the Maconomy database and affects the Item Purchase and Job Cost modules. You cannot delete a purchase order if it has outstanding lines that were created in the Job Budgets workspace.

Before you delete purchase orders, print copies of the purchase orders and make a backup copy of your database.

Maconomy prints out a list of the deleted purchase orders.

When you delete a purchase order, all of the information about that purchase order disappears from Maconomy. You cannot view it in any workspaces or on any printouts. Before you delete the purchase orders, Maconomy reminds you that you should first print them for auditing purposes.

Even if a purchase order is closed, Maconomy does not delete it if it has lines that were created in the Job Budgets workspace, and the job (job budget line) is still in the system when you try to delete the purchase order.
