Allow Merge of Duplicate Vendors

The ability to be able to merge duplicate vendors should be reinstated. I am not sure what criteria is used to search for duplicates, but it isn't working.

    Please reinstate. This is a critical feature for maintaining proper vendor history.

    This feature was available in Database view and it was helpful to not have to recreate one vendor's whole AP history into the other account manually. Please bring this back. Thank you!

    I'm just posting so blackbaud knows that another client needs the simple ability to merge vendors. PLEASE

    Organizations merge and this function is needed to keep up to date with that fact. Now we pay EverTrue for ThankView, Pledgemine, Fundriver, and Solas. Right after we signed a contract with GiveGab and made a payment they merged with and became Bonterra Tech. Not every reason for merging vendors is because of an error. Bring this feature back! The history is needed.

    This is a critical need for our organization. We have multiple vendor records that were created at some point and need to be merged. This affects our other databases as our grants database reads from the financial database. We have donors that go to make a donation to a vendor (nonprofit) and because there are multiple vendors that cannot be merged - our database is a mess. We cannot inactivate a record because we need that data.

    Especially with the introduction of Payment Assistant, it's crucial that we be able to properly maintain our vendor list. This is a no-brainer tool for doing that.

    Please reinstate merge vendor! This is a common need in the workplace and the suggestion you have for the "work around" is not only time consuming but prone to error as well as having many inactive vendors. I can't believe you have let this feature go!

    I am requesting Merge Vendors to be reinstated.

    It was a feature from the beginning in database and should still be available

    to keep the vendor list accurate.

    Why was this removed? It makes no sense. And the workarounds open the door to more errors. Please reinstate!!!!

    Absolutely an epic fail on the part of BB....how do you take away a basic accounting function with no consideration for the consequences?? They really need an accountant involved in the development phase before ridiculously dumb decisions like this are finalized!!

    Pls consider reinstating. It makes no sense that you removed it.

    The workaround is completely manual. Please reinstate this feature!

    It is very easy to enter duplicate records in NXT this totally needs to be reinstated. Makes no sense not to!
