How do I delete a card?

You can only delete a card 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 ensures you keep a history of cards used in transactions for auditing reports.

Instead of deleting, you can make the card inactive or combine the card with another one to remove the old card from your lists.

To delete a card

Go to the Lists menu and choose Cards.
Locate the card you want to delete.

Right-click the card and choose Delete Card.

UI Text Box

type	note

Delete Card greyed-out? Your user role needs to be set up with permission to delete. If you need to regularly change transactions, ask your administrator to add this permission to your user role.

To make a card inactive

Go to the Lists menu and choose Cards.
Right-click the card to be made inactive and choose Mark Inactive.
Read the displayed information.
Click OK.
If you later need to activate the card:
1. Go to the Lists menu and choose Cards.
2. Select the option Show Inactive.
3. Right-click the card to be activated and choose Mark Active.
