Supplier Inactivate - Delete ?

[Rorqual]

dear all ,

during recent internal audit we have receieved such comment from them ..
"We recommend that these inactive vendors be reviewed on a regular basis and deleted from JDE master data system as appropriate."

Before we responding to them , Can any of you help me to understand what is the best practise for such cases ?

I am assuming deleting supplier from JDE comopletely is not possible as they have historical transactions ..

Any idea ?

You wont be able to delete records with corresponding records in F0411.

Make sure any access to P0401 Supplier Master is locked down to users that cannot update AP or PO's. We had to make a few custom mods to check for Hold Payment status before allowing update of F4301/F4311 as well.
