In the Delete Account panel, you can delete a custom ledger account manually for a custom COA. A custom Chart of Accounts (COA) contains accounts that you customized.

To delete a custom ledger account manually:

1. In Accounting Center, in the left navigation pane, click Setup > Ledger > Chart of Accounts > Delete Account.
   You see the Delete Account panel.

2. In the Chart of Account Name field, select the name of the custom COA with accounts you want to delete. 
   For example, STAR.

3. In the Query Ledger Accounts by field, specify whether to identify the accounts by account number, description, or both. Options include: 
   - Ledger account number. Lists the account you select in the Ledger Account Number field. 
   - Ledger account description. Lists the account you select in the Ledger Account Description field.
   - All. Default. Lists all accounts for the selected custom COA.

4. If you selected a value other than All, in the Chart of Account G/L Number and Chart of Account G/L Description fields, select the number or description for the account you want to delete.

5. Click Submit.
   You see the accounts that met your criteria in the Show All tab. 

6. Select the check box for the row for each ledger account you want to delete so that a check mark appears at the left, and click Delete Custom G/L Account.
   You see a row for each ledger account you selected. The fields describing the account are locked, and are for information only.

7. Click Submit to delete the selected ledger accounts.
