Merge Merchant Names to prevent duplicate names like 7-11, 7-ELEVEN, 7 ELEVEN, 7 Eleven, Etc
We have many duplicate names spelled different for merchants like 7-11, 7-ELEVEN, 7 ELEVEN, 7 Eleven, Etc. They are all the same merchant. Expenses are associated with each so I cannot delete any of them. If we can merge merchants we can clean this up, keep ONE name, and delete the rest.

TOTALLY agree, except that we need to be able to merge ALL versions of the name, under a single preferred version, BUT KEEP the other versions so that matching and auto-categorizing will still occur. If we merge them, but forget the others, they will just be created again and require more merging. Choose primary merchant name to view, but keep all merged versions for matching and categorization.
