Originally posted by **Annie-Ayers** August 14, 2024 While managing our collection in Symbiota, we have many unprocessed records that are duplicate entries of processed collections. This occurs when databasers don't toggle "automatically search for duplicates" and double-enter specimen records. It would be wonderful to be able to search for duplicate entries and merge records when appropriate.
