Is it possible to delete the default accounts in the accounting app either in the UI or in the mysql console?
If yes how can i do it

Oh i found it its truncate tabAccount;

Oh please don’t do that. You will lose data integrity. Always better to start from a fresh database and re-import your master data.

It was a new database i think it wont afect anything

I think for new instance, you can do that but you have to delete the default account values from company as well.

But to be in safe side, it is always recommended to delete accounts one by one from Chart of Accounts page.
