To purge historical customers

  1. Access Customer Purge (AR301).
  2. Run this program to delete all customers assigned to a specific company or customer group from the Accounts Receivable application. The program deletes customers based on the number of months that must elapse after the last customer activity date (last payment, statement, or invoice date) you assigned in Customer Delete Months field on Company (AR01.1). If the field was left blank, AR301 deletes customers regardless of the last activity date. If you are using customer auditing, any audit records for the purged customer are also deleted. The customer must also be flagged with a status of "D"elete and all transactions associated with the customer must have previously been purged from the system. The report creates a listing of deleted customers. You have the option to archive deleted records to disk. The output file contains the information included in the listing.
