WARNING: Deleting an account will remove all its transactions and transaction history from Quicken. The transactions and historical information will no longer be available in reports, tools or over-time reports. You should delete an account only if it was added in error, or if you're sure you will never need the account data in Quicken again.
Consider hiding the account (see help topic above) instead of deleting if it's a valid account that is closed or infrequently used. This will remove the account from day-to-day usage but preserve the past data for reports and tools.
