When Sage won't let us delete something (customer / vendor / item) we tend to renumber / merge into a ZZZZZZZ record, which cleans things up, but doesn't break any of the data.

So, the only way I could get the vendor to purge during PEP was to first use the utility Purge Accounts Payable History (invoice and payment) and then use Purge Vendor 1099 Payment History.
Still not sure exactly why!?

@Kevin Moyes I don't think they own PO, but I need to confirm that.
@Bill Pfahnl but why is there 1099 history if it is beyond the retention period? Why won't it purge the 1099 history then the vendor. Weird.

According to help, "Temporary vendors with 1099 payment history are not removed."

@Kevin Moyes Yep, I'm aware of that - but - none of those criteria apply. The vendor has a zero balance and no invoices. But like I mentioned there are records in the check history for some reason and records in the 1099 history. Not sure why those records were not purged, the invoices were purged!?
