The “Clean Manufacturers” allows the user to remove any manufacturers with no asset associated and to merge any duplicate manufacturers listed.

KAStrack is programmed to require a backup of data prior to cleaning the manufacturers, so if this button is selected and a backup has not yet been completed, a prompt will appear to remind the user to first save the data and then return to this page.

Selecting the three-dot icon located to the right of the manufacturer in the Manufacturer Title table allows you to Manage the specific Manufacturer information.
