Delete Source Records when Merging Duplicates

Similar to Classic, it would be nice to be able to delete the source record once all the information is merged to the target record so we don't have to manually delete afterwards.

    Agree with everyone here! I have to manually delete the duplicate accounts in Database View every time. Occasionally, I'll forget to do this step right away and get confused messages from my team about "duplicate accounts" that I thought I had cleared up.

    Similar to Webview, and as stated above, please keep a record of merged duplicates from which a list can be created for mass deletion. This would allow the entire list of merged constituents can be deleted at one time after data clean-up is complete.

    This would be a helpful feature to have!

    I am shocked as well. This should have been implemented long ago and NXT should have never been released without this function.

    Agreed, and should be merged with https://renxt.ideas.aha.io/ideas/RENXT-I-4369

    This is shocking to me. I can't believe it didn't REALLY merge my records! OY!

    This is a serious problem and very frustrating NXT only marks the record as inactive, instead of deleting the record.

    The absence of this feature essentially makes the tool useless.

    Yes I agree, this is a big problem, I have never seen a database that doesnt give you the option to delete the duplicates..

    I can't believe this doesn't have more votes. This is a HUGE bug as far as I am concerned. It is an existing function in RE7 and should have been programmed into as an NXT process as well.
