Good day, @Jen-and-David. I’m here to share some info about the merging process for vendors.

In QuickBooks Online, merging different profiles or entity type isn’t possible. Vendor information must the same, so you ended up with one. Please know that QuickBooks moves transactions from the duplicate to the vendor you want to keep.

Check out this reference to learn more: Merge duplicate accounts, customers, and vendors in QuickBooks Online.

Also, here’s the expenses and vendors guide in QuickBooks. This will give you more details about your business and cash flow through proper bookkeeping practices.

I’ll be here to help if you have any other questions or concerns besides merging vendors. Just add them to your reply below. Always take care!
