Delete a customer or supplier contact

You can only delete contacts when they have no transactions entered against them.

When a customer or supplier is no longer used, we recommend that you make it Inactive. This prevents you from entering new transactions for the customer or supplier. Read how to make customer and supplier records inactive >
