Part Accounts Setting
An account code is used to denote a general ledger account number or other information for accounting purposes. Account Codes can then be subsequently used on Purchase Orders if the “Use Account Codes” switch is set to yes.
Refer to Parts System Switches for more information.
Once Part Accounts are created, they can be associated with individual part files by adding them to the account number field. Refer to Adding a Part File for information on where this is applied.

Click on the trashcan icon next to the part account.
Click delete when the confirmation box pops up.
