Purge Paid Transactions and Temporary Vendors
You can use the Paid Trans/Temp Vendors tab on the AP Purge form to remove paid transactions through a specified month/year.
the month must be closed in the subledgers of the GL company assigned in AP Company Parameters (GL Co# field, GL Expense Posting tab)
all lines of a transaction must be fully paid
the month for the last payment made for the transaction must match the month that you specify
When purging paid transactions, if the vendor has been set to be temporary (you selected the Temporary check box in the AP Vendors form) the system checks for any remaining open or paid transactions. If nothing is found, the vendor's annual totals and static information in AP Vendors are also deleted.
The Paid Trans/Temp Vendors tab removes records and their attachments from the bAPTH, bAPTL, bAPTD, bAPUR, and bAPVM database tables. While the information in these tables can be kept indefinitely, this information takes up considerable space and you should develop a regular purge cycle.
