About Deleting Firms

You can delete a firm as long as there is no detail associated with it.

If detail exists for a firm, you must delete it before you can delete the firm. The following is a list of tables that are checked by the system when you select a firm for deletion in PM Firms. If detail exists for the firm in any of these tables, you will receive an error message (for each table in which the firm exists) and the firm will not be deleted. To avoid this process, it is suggested that you first check these tables to ensure detail does not exist for the firm before you attempt to delete the firm.
