Merge data fields

You can consolidate similar fields to eliminate duplicates and ensure consistent company contract insights. You can only merge two fields of the same type from your Company data fields library.

To consolidate fields, you must have rights to “Manage data fields library”. Ensure you have this user permission enabled before proceeding, or contact your company administrator for help.

  • Click on your profile icon in the top right corner and select Data fields library under the “Company” section from the menu.

  • Hover over the first data field you want to use in the merge, and click the checkbox that appears on the left side of the field's name to select it.

  • Click the checkbox for the second data field. You can only merge two data fields of the same type at once.

  • Click the Merge button that appears in the action bar at the bottom of the page. Review the warning screen to verify the merge order. The top field will be deleted and replaced by the bottom field across your existing documents and templates.
