They remain forever. (There was a decent explanation as to why recently
on IRC - the short of it is that deleting them cleanly is simply too
messy with the current code.)
My workflow in such cases is to change their ID to 'use next'. You can
either create a dummy vendor/customer for them as well, or just leave
them as-is since you can re-assign the vendor/customer before posting.
When I want to start a new bill/invoice, I do a find for 'use next' IDs,
but that is pretty rare now as I just duplicate a previous document and
edit from there. (and I don't think I have any 'use next' documents left
anyway.)

Adrien

A different track....
In my hasty entering / importing of Invoices and Bill I find that some of them
are duplicates, or not needed.
I can make them "disappear" by un-posting and clicking the delete button, but
where do they go?
Does GnuCash automatically purge the trash? If not, how do I clean it up?
Thanks for the help,
Eric
