Once the sync completes and the entity is removed from QB, it is then completely removed from Method along with any related contact records.</p> <p class="p1">When a lead is deleted, since it does not sync with QB, it should be removed immediately along with any related contacts. There is a ticket with the development team, as this is not happening as it should. At this time, I believe that the lead is being archived, <i>marked for deletion</i> and the related contacts are remaining in the <b>Contacts</b> table.</p> <p class="p1">Keeping in mind that there is a ticket for lead contacts not being removed, are you experiencing different behaviour and if so can you explain?</p> <p class="p1">-Audisho</p>http://forums.method.me/cs/forums/thread/27594.aspxTue, 09 Jun 2015 14:40:30 GMT3393c1ec-311b-4812-96cb-ad8c611bba4f:27594mahlonf0http://forums.method.me/cs/forums/thread/27594.aspxhttp://forums.method.me/cs/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=30&PostID=27594<p><span style="overflow:hidden;"><span style="overflow:hidden;"><span id="mce_6_start" style="overflow:hidden;"></span></span></span>During testing a new setup, I usually end up needing to delete some contacts. When deleting a contact you must delete the entity first.</p> <p><span style="overflow:hidden;"><span style="overflow:hidden;"></span></span></p> <p>For some contacts, it deletes the entity, but will not let you delete the primary contact. So you end up with orphaned contacts. What is the best way to filter the contact list to exclude orphaned contacts?</p> <p><span style="overflow:hidden;"><span style="overflow:hidden;"></span></span></p> <p>Also have a customer contact that had some test transactions. I deleted the transactions and tried to delete the contact. Seems like it made the contact in active but did not delete anything. Is it possible that method will not allow you to delete the contact after it has been synchronized with QuickBooks?</p> <p><span id="mce_0_start" style="overflow:hidden;"><span id="mce_5_start" style="overflow:hidden;"></span></span></p>
