Hi!!
 
I have read this post about merging two customer records in the same legal entity: Merge duplicate customer or vendor records - Business Central | Microsoft Learn. It's said that "The steps are similar for a vendor and contact cards."
 
There is a case when two vendor accounts are duplicated (maybe two staff created the same vendor information) 
I try to find the "Merge" function in the vendor page, but there's no merge button.
 
Is there anyone working on this function? Thank you so much !!!

    D365F&O - Merge two vendor accounts in the same legal entity
    Hi,
     
    Sorry for the confusion. I've editted the post.
     
    I will describe it again here.
     
    I want to merge two vendor accounts having the same information. This problem may come from two staff created the same vendor information in the system.
     
    Maybe we can simply delete one if it has no transaction. However, I want to merge it (if we can).
     
     
    I've check the system, and there is one role called "Workload administrator" whose duty is to "Maintain workload duplicate records". I've assign this role to my user and expected the "Merge" button may appear. However, there is no different before and after I add new role to user.
     
    I'm quite new to the system, so there may be some mistake/ misleading about the system functionality. Feel free to point out!!!
     
    Thank you guys so much!!!!!

    Hi,
     
     
    I'm making an assumption that you can't find the merge button (try to find). However, I do agree with Martin that your question is confusing. We don't know which solution you are using as you are mixing BC and F&O in one post. The word failed can also mean a lot. Please be more specific.
    In case you are using Dynamics 365 F&O, then there is no merge option for vendors in the same legal entity. In case you don't have transactions on one vendor, you can delete the record or reuse it for another new vendor in the future. If you have transactions, you can block the vendor for new invoices.

    The title says that your question is about F&O but the documentation page is about Business Central. Please clarify which product you're using and then tell us more about the problem than mere "it's failed".
