Two vendors that are the same business can now become one.

- Merge from a vendor's page. Open **More**, then select **Merge into another vendor**. You choose which vendor is kept and which details win, and see what moves before anything changes.
- See suggestions. **Possible duplicates** lists pairs that share a name, email, phone number, tax ID or street address. **Not the same vendor** stops a pair being suggested.
- Nothing in your books changes. Bills, payments, expenses and documents move to the kept vendor. No amount, account or date changes.
- The old name still works. It is kept under **Also known as**, so search and uploaded bills find the kept vendor by it.
- Undo for 30 days. **Undo merge** on either vendor's page puts every record back.

Merging needs *Edit vendors* and *Edit bills*.

Saving a one-time merchant as a vendor now moves its recorded expenses as well as its drafts. An expense waiting for approval keeps the one-time name.
