# How to Void a Trade

Release #242, on June 23, 2022, introduced the ability to easily void a trade, essentially deleting the trade while maintaining the reporting data up to the void date.

On the **TRADES** screen, find the trade you wish to void, click the hamburger action menu and select **VOID:**

From there, you can update the void date and press **SAVE** when finished:

All valuation entries for this trade with a reporting date greater than or equal to the void date will be deleted.

#### Voiding a Group of Trades <a href="#voiding_a_group_of_trades" id="voiding_a_group_of_trades"></a>

You can read about how to group trades [here](/core-functionality/core-features/specialized-features/trades/trades-screen/how-to-group-ungroup-trades.md).

Then, select the trades you'd like to group by hovering over the commodity icon on the left-hand side and checking the boxes like this:&#x20;

Follow the steps above to void the trade but remember to select which trades in the group you'd like to void:

<div align="left"><img src="https://files.helpdocs.io/56bu62syz9/articles/rkcmrk9ecx/1689265026101/file-fvlb-dvgwpw.png" alt="" width="375"></div>

Add the **VOID DATE**, and press **SAVE** when you're finished. &#x20;

#### Viewing Voided Trades <a href="#viewing_voided_trades" id="viewing_voided_trades"></a>

Voided trades can still be viewed in the application by selecting **SHOW DELETED TRADES** from the actions menu of the Trades screen:
