This feature is designed to help preserve file space by eliminating unnecessary records. Temporary customers are retained in the Customer file if a balance remains, or if there are any repetitive invoice entries or open sales orders on file. All permanent customers are retained until intentionally deleted, regardless of the account balance. This option is available only if the Internet Enabled check box is cleared.
