You can use this option to save time when paying supplier invoices. This groups all outstanding transactions together, allowing you to pay or allocate these items all at once. 

 NOTE: The batch change option is only available in Sage 50 Accounts Professional. If you're interested in upgrading, leave your details and we'll be in touch. 

TIP: Use Salary and Supplier Payments for a secure way to pay your suppliers and HMRC directly from your Sage 50 Accounts.

Batch payments
