# Delete vendor connection

Delete an existing Network connection with a vendor organization. Delete vendor connection follows a set of rules.
* **No scheduled payments**: There should be no scheduled payments. All scheduled payments must be canceled before you can disconnect.
* **No in-process payments**: There should be no in-progress payments. All in-progress payments must clear before you can disconnect.

You can use this endpoint to cancel a pending connection request sent to a vendor that has auto-connections disabled. You can send a new connection request after an existing connection or connection request is canceled.

**Note**: If the vendor does not respond to a connection request for 60 days, the request expires.

See [BILL Network](https://developer.bill.com/docs/bill-network) in the Guides section for more information, sample requests, and responses.
