How do I remove lines that show Equipment (deleted) and Depreciation (deleted) from my balance sheet report?

Thank you for posting here in the Community, @fischerginny8.

I can help you get rid of this type of information on your QuickBooks report. It usually happens when you filter the balance sheet to show both inactive and active accounts.

To get rid of those lines marked as Deleted, I suggest you customize the settings. Here are the steps:

1. Click the Reports tab.
2. Enter and select Balance Sheet.
3. Filter the Report period.
4. In the Show non-zero or active only drop-down, select Active.
5. Click Run report. 

I've also included some articles in case you need more ideas about customizing, memorizing, and frequently asked questions when running the report:

• Customize Report
• Memorize reports

• FAQ: Basic troubleshooting for balance sheets.

Do they have historical transactions? If so, you may make balance sheets account for fixed assets inactive but it will still show Account label as deleted. Only the accounts with transactions with zero balance, you can customize to hide the accounts when running the Balance Sheet report.
