Use this utility to delete journal transaction records.

Enter or select a specific journal and inclusive cutoff date (before which transactions are to be deleted).

The Journals are:

AP Dist - Accounts Payable Ledger Distribution
AR Dist - Accounts Receivable Ledger Distribution
BNK Dist - Banking Distribution
CO Dist - Order Entry Ledger Distribution
FA Dist - Fixed Assets Ledger Distribution
FS Dist - Service Distribution
General - General Journal
IC Dist - Inventory Control Ledger Distribution
Multi-Site - Multi-Site Journal
PC Dist - Project Control Ledger Distribution
PO Dist - Purchasing Ledger Distribution
PR Dist - Payroll Ledger Distribution
SF Dist - Shop Floor Control Ledger Distribution
WC Dist - Work Center Ledger Distribution

Note: The Inventory Distribution Journal is no longer used, but remains for backward compatibility. It has been replaced by the CO Distribution, IC Distribution, PO Distribution, and SF Distribution Journals.

You can also purge user-defined journals.

If the Purge Journals utility is run as a background task, the date up to which journals are deleted is displayed in the Background Task History task parameters.
