Deleting a recurring transaction

Deleting a recurring transaction only removes it from your list of recurring transaction templates. Transactions recorded previously, using this recurring transaction as a template, are not affected.

You can only delete one recurring transaction at a time - here's how:

3. Click OK to delete the recurring transaction.
