Hello mbsiker1,

 

Congrats on your first post in the Community. QuickBooks makes it easy to navigate so you can make the changes you need to in a timely manner. I'll be happy to provide the steps for deleting an account in QuickBooks. 

 

Before we get started, it's important to note that the equivalent to deleting an account is by making it inactive. Here's how: 

 

  1. Go to Settings ⚙ and select Chart of accounts.
  2. Find the account you want to delete.
  3. Select the Action ▼ dropdown and select Make inactive.

If you'd like to learn more about making an account inactive, reactivating it, or even locating the inactive account, I encourage you to check out this article here as it provides an ample amount of information for you to move forward with ease. 

 

You're more than welcome to reach back to me in the comments below. I'll be a message away in case you need additional assistance.
