Merge People 1

If you get duplicate people in your data you can consolidate the data and merge them into one.

If a person is referenced on an entry you can't delete them so you must merge any references to one person so that the other person has no references, then you can delete that person.

The first step is to decide which person you want to keep, the one with the most information for example, and then copy any information of value from the person you intend to delete to the person you intend to keep.


Merge People 2

The next step is to "push" the person you want to delete into the Merge box.

 

 


Merge People 3

Then "push" the person you want to keep into the To box and click the Do Merge button.

 

You will now be able delete the person as all references have been moved to the other person.
