You can delete a record, like a card or stock item, that you no longer need. However, a record cannot be deleted if it is used in a transaction, has been selected in another record, or if it has a balance.

If you're trying to delete transactions, see Deleting a transaction.

What records can't be deleted? You can only delete a card, account, item or a job if it has never been used in a transaction. If it has been used, you will not be able to delete it, even after deleting any associated transactions.This makes sure you keep a history of records used in transactions for auditing reports.

As an alternative, you can make the record inactive or combine an account or card with another record to remove it from your lists.
