Merge duplicate Customer Records

When you merge duplicate Customer Records in ServiceTitan, any information in the record being removed that is not on the record you are keeping will be added to the record you are keeping.

Merging duplicate records comes down to the following

:

  1. Locate and mark the duplicate Customer Record.

  2. Merge the duplicate Customer Record with the one you’re keeping.

The steps below describe how accomplish this:

  2. Open the duplicate record and click Edit icon-pencil.png next to the customer name.

  3. Enter DUPLICATE in front of the name then click Save.
