The flagged record you clicked on will display first, on the left side of the table. Other similar records will display in columns for comparison purposes.- Identify the "key" (or most current) record, based on the identifying information (i.e., the Job Seeker's account Profile). Click the [Select] button for this record.
- Identify the records to be merged into the best record, and click the [Merge] icon, turning it to the [Merge on] state.

A note in the Job Seeker History will record that the record has been merged.
