34.1 Introduction

This process deletes old paid payroll vouchers within set parameters and should be used with extreme caution. It can be selected using Paid Vouchers from the Maintenance, Delete Old menu. The process asks for the date before which all paid vouchers are to be deleted. The date entered is compared with the date of the voucher, not the voucher pay date. Deleting vouchers completely removes the records from the system. If you wish to save a report of these vouchers, you should run a report listing all vouchers with a date before the date you intend to use for deletion.

This process does not delete vouchers that have not been completely paid no matter what their dates. It also does not delete vouchers that have other transactions (i.e. checks) referencing them. To remove old checks, run the process Checks from the Maintenance, Delete Old menu.
