# Delete a One-Time Prepaid Purchase

Remove a one-time prepaid purchase that was entered by mistake, directly from the Purchase Ledger tab on a Product's history page.

> **Warning:** Deleting a purchase can't be undone. It removes the purchase's units from the ledger, and the Customer's original charge for those units isn't credited or refunded.

## Check that you can delete the purchase

You can delete a purchase if you're an admin or have Customer Support access for the site.

The **Delete Purchase** option is available only for a purchase that meets all of the following:

- It's a one-time purchase, not a recurring allocation.
- None of its units have been used yet.
- It hasn't expired.

A row that doesn't meet these conditions, or that you don't have access to delete, shows a disabled actions menu instead.

## Delete the purchase

Deletion happens from the actions menu on the purchase's row in the Purchase Ledger tab.

**To delete a purchase**

1. Open the Product's history page and select the **Purchase Ledger** tab. See <a href="https://docs.maxio.com/billing/subscriptions/management/product-allocations/track-product-usage-for-a-subscription" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Track Product Usage for a Subscription</a> for how to open it.
2. Find the purchase's row and click its actions menu (the three-dot icon).
3. Select **Delete Purchase**.
4. In the **Delete Purchase** dialog, click **Delete**.

## What to expect

After you click **Delete**, the page reloads on the Purchase Ledger tab, at the same page of the ledger. If you deleted the last row on a page, it opens the previous page. The purchase no longer appears in the ledger.

If the deletion fails, the dialog stays open and shows the error message. The **Delete** button is disabled until you close the dialog. Click **Close**, then try again.
