# Merge products

> Combine products that are really one style in several sizes or colours.

Imports sometimes create a separate product for each size or colour of the same style. Merging turns them into one product with several variants.

LUXIMA tells you when it spots this, with a line on the Passports page such as "4 styles look like one product in several sizes", and an item under **Needs attention** on the dashboard.

## Merge

**1. Select the products**

On the Passports page, tick two or more products that are the same style.

**2. Start the merge**

Click **Merge into one product**.

**3. Choose which product to keep**

Under **Keep this product**, pick the one whose details should stay. LUXIMA suggests the one with the most variants.

The preview shows how many variants the kept product will have, and lists any details that differ between the products. Where they differ, the kept product's values stay.

**4. Confirm**

Click the **Merge** button. The merged product opens in the editor.

## What happens to the data

* All variants move into the product you keep, with their GTINs, Luxima IDs, weights, impact figures and scan history.
* The other products are archived.
* Existing passport links and QR codes keep working. They open the merged product on the right variant, so labels you already printed stay valid.

## After merging

If two of the merged products had the same size and colour, both variants are kept. Open the **Variants** section and delete one if they are the same item.

## If the merge is refused

| Message | What to do |
| - | - |
| "... is in the trash." | Restore the product first, or leave it out. |
| "... was already merged into another product." | Leave it out of the selection. |
