How to Merge Vendors via API Web Portal
Use case: Have 5 "Lowes" Vendors on File: "Lowe's", "Lowes Home", "Lowes Home Improvement" etc? but really don't need to track different locations
You may have noticed that if you process receipts from one particular Vendor, but actual purchases were made at different sore locations your Vendor results may differ, causing confusion & inconvenience and actually breaking the Vendor statistics. (may be applicable for particular use cases only)
Here is how you make ALL receipts be saved under ONE Vendor.
1. Merge ALL Vendors into ONE:
Log in to your Web Portal: https://app.veryfi.com/
Go to your INBOX
Navigate to VENDORS https://app.veryfi.com/vendors/
Preset date filter to ALL to see ALL Vendors for ALL time
Search by necessary Vendor name
Select all the Vendors you want to merge
Click the MERGE button in the Bulk Actions section
8. Select Vendor you wish to MERGE all the selected ones into.
*You can type Vendor name to adjust the list
9. Press YES, MERGE to confirm the action
10. What happens next is all your Documents that have vendor name that fall into the merge criteria will be updated with a new vendor.
2. Create a RULE to Assign ONE Vendor to ALL documents
Log in to your Web Portal : https://app.veryfi.com/
Go to Data Transformation section
Navigate to RULES https://app.veryfi.com/rules/
Preset ADD A RULE
Set Condition OCR text Contains
Type few keywords from Vendor Name to Filter
Select Vendor to Apply in Action
Select Vendor from your Vendor drop-down list
From now on ALL receipts where OCR text contains "Radisson" text will be assigned with "Radisson blue Hotel " name.
