    Hello,

    In order to bulk delete you can run the table from Development Environment, filter on the contacts you want to delete , select all then delete... Or do it by code.

    In order to merge contacts, you can check a Cronus RU database. It have a "Combine Vendors/Customers" functionality. With little adaptation you'll do the same for Contacts.

    The best way is to create a codeunit that loops through Contact table and delete the items (using DELETE(true)).

    The same for merging: you need a customization.
