Merge Duplicate Breeds (How-To)

Summary

The Merge function helps when you create duplicate breed records by mistake. It combines duplicate breeds into one.

Before You Begin

Warning: You merge breed records at your own risk. You cannot undo a merge.

  • All admin users can open the admin page for these settings. Admin users can also give this page to other user groups. Non-admin users with access can make edits that affect all locations in the app. See User Groups.
  • Breed names on animal profiles update to the breed record you keep.

Steps

  1. Compare both breed names and decide which record to keep.

    Tip: If both breed records have exactly the same name, rename the record you want to remove. This helps you pick them in the right order.

  2. Go to Left-hand Navigation: Admin » Merge Data.
  3. Select the first breed for Merge This Breed. This record goes away.
  4. Select the second breed for Into This Breed. This record stays as the merged record.

    Merge Breeds interface with dropdowns.

  5. Select Merge Breeds. If the merge works, a success message shows in the top right of the app.

    Notification: Breeds merged successfully.
