Make a Company Inactive/Active

Make a Company Inactive/Active

In CustomBooks™, you may find the need to disable or make a company inactive—whether it’s a customer or a vendor—without deleting their historical transactions. This ensures that all previous transactions remain intact for reference and reporting purposes, while preventing any new transactions from being recorded for that company. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to disable a company:
  1. Go to Lists Companies.
  2. Select or highlight the company to disable.
  3. Right click, choose Edit > then select Make Inactive or Make Active (to reactive). If a company is inactive/disabled, the company name will be shown in strike-through text.


Info
  1. You may highlight multiple companies to batch inactivate/activate.
  2. Inactive companies may be hidden from the list. Click the Hide Inactive Companies button in the bottom-left corner of the Companies List to hide inactive companies.
