SQL Scripts for Microsoft Dynamics GP: Create Macro to Delete Items

Microsoft Dynamics GPThis script is part of the SQL Scripts for Microsoft Dynamics GP where I will be posted the scripts I wrote against Microsoft Dynamics GP over the 19 years before I stopped working with Dynamics GP.

This script selects all items from Item Master (IV00101) and creates a Dynamics GP macro which can be played back to delete the items. It was created as some items were imported during an implementation and then it was decided to change how items were configured requiring all current items to be removed; there was no transactional data entered so a clean delete was still possible.

It is sometimes the little things which are catching me out. I was doing some testing with fixed assets and ran into an issue trying to enter an asset acquisition:
