To record a batch purchase payment

Accounts Professional only

To save you time and pay lots of invoices for different suppliers in one window you can use the Batch Payments option.

You can choose to pay all transactions in full, individual transactions in full or you can even part pay transactions.

Note: You cannot make batch payments in e-Payments.


To enter a batch payment

  1. Bank > select the required bank account > Batch Payments.
  2. Complete the Batch Payments window as follows:

    Show

    To filter which transactions appear in this window, from the drop-down list choose one of the following:

    • All - Shows all transactions.
    • Due - Only shows transactions within their due date. You set the due date within Suppliers > Supplier Record > Credit Control > Payment Due. This is then recorded on each transaction.
    • Date Range - If you choose this option you can then enter the From and To date which then only shows transactions in this date range.

    Date

    Enter the date of the payment.

    Exchange Rate

    Note: This only appears if you have activated the Foreign Trader option.

    Enter the required exchange rate for the payment.

    Payment

    In the Payment column enter the required payment value against the relevant invoices.

    Tip: If your invoices have been fully paid you can use the Pay in Full option which automatically enters the full value of the invoice.

    If you want to pay all invoices in full click Pay All.

    Discount

    In the Discount column enter any required discount value against the relevant invoice. You must also reduce the payment value by the discount value.
