This utility removes all items with a remaining dollar amount of zero. For example, an invoice that was entered and subsequently paid will have an amount remaining of zero. You can review the items with zero amounts remaining by clicking the Aging tab in the AP Vendors window or by running the Aging report.

This utility is normally run for the last day of the previous quarter, but you can use month-end, year-end, or any other date that is appropriate for your business.
