Hi there,
QuickBooks Online makes it easy delete an account and I'd be glad to show you how.
If you're referring to a bank account, you may need to disconnect the bank connection before deleting the account. Keep in mind that you can restore a deleted account, but may need to make corrections to journal entries and balances. If you're unsure, check with your accounting professional before deleting an account.
To disconnect an account:
- In the navigation bar, click Banking, and then select the Banking sub-tab.
- Select the account you want to delete, and then click its Edit icon, then Edit account info.
- In the Account window, select Disconnect this account on save.
- Click on Save and Close.
The account stays in QuickBooks, but isn't automatically updated with downloaded transactions.
To delete an account: (Be sure you understand the effects if you fully delete an account.)
- Click the Gear icon, and then click on Chart of Accounts.
- Select the account you want to delete in the list.
- Click on the drop-down arrow beside View register and select Delete.
- Confirm that you want to delete the account.
