Merging vendors

Notice a duplicate vendor in your account, or have one vendor that goes by two names? Here's how to merge vendors.

You may have noticed that some of your vendors appear more than once under different names. This is either because the vendor's name is spelled differently on the documents you receive, or because the vendor operates under two names.

That is why we have made it easy to merge several vendors into one vendor. This consolidates the vendor's payment information and retains that information when it is synchronized to your accounting system. In addition, the documents that previously sat under the first vendor will move to the other vendor.

How to merge vendors

1. Go to Bill Pay > Vendors in the menu on the left.
2. Select the vendor you want to merge into another vendor. Click the three dots to the right of the vendor's name and select Merge vendor. Make sure you click the vendor that should not be kept.

3. A new window now opens, where you select the vendor you want to merge the selected vendor into.

4. Click Confirm and merge. All existing and future documents in Corpay One will then appear under the merged vendor.

How does merging a vendor affect the existing documents under that vendor when syncing with my accounting system?

Depending on the settings in your integration, merging a vendor can automatically trigger a new synchronization of that vendor's documents to your accounting system. If it does not, future events for the document (such as payment) are recorded on the new, merged vendor.
