# Close Vault Transaction Account

This instruction will reclaim rent from a Vault Transaction account, and close the account. This requires the transaction to be stale (`transactionIndex` < `staleTransactionIndex`), the  corresponding proposal to be Cancelled, or the transaction itself be Executed.

## Example

```typescript
import * as multisig from "@sqds/multisig";
import { Connection, PublicKey } from "@solana/web3.js"

async function main(member: PublicKey) {
    // Cluster Connection
    const connection = new Connection("<your rpc url>");
    
    // If you've saved your createKey, you can define it as a static PublicKey
    const createKey = new PublicKey("<your createkey>")
    
    // Derive the multisig PDA
    const [multisigPda] = multisig.getMultisigPda({
        createKey,
    });
    // or
    // const multisigPda = new PublicKey("<your multisig key>");
    
    // Get deserialized multisig account info
    const multisigInfo = await multisig.accounts.Multisig.fromAccountAddress(
      connection,
      multisigPda
    );

    // Get the current transaction index
    const transactionIndex = Number(multisigInfo.transactionIndex);
    // or, if this is tied to your first transaction
    // const transactionIndex = 1n;
    
    const ix = await multisig.instructions.vaultTransactionAccountsClose({
        multisigPda,
        // This value should be the current rent collector Public Key of the Multisig.
        rentCollector: vaultPda,
        transactionIndex,
        multisig.programId,
    });
}
```

### Notes

* Vault Transactions can be reclaimed when they are stale (`transactionIndex` < `staleTransactionIndex`), or of status Cancelled or Executed.
* Reclaimed rent will be returned to the set rent collector on the Multisig account.
