Merge duplicate suppliers

Learn how to merge duplicate supplier profiles to keep your supplier list accurate and organised. Merging suppliers moves past transactions from the duplicate supplier to the one you want to keep and makes the duplicate inactive.

Important: Choose carefully which profile to keep and which to merge. If you need to restore a merged supplier, you'll need to manually recreate the profile.
