Batch payments

1. Click Bank accounts then click Batch supplier payment. Depending on the size of the display, you may need to choose Batch supplier payment from the Payments drop-down list.
2. To filter the list of transactions, from the Show drop-down list, choose one of the following:
   • All - Shows all transactions.
   • Due - Only shows transactions on or after their due date. The due date of a transaction is based on the Payment Due date in the supplier record when the transaction is posted.
   • Date Range - If you choose this option you can enter the from and to date, which then only shows transactions in that range.
3. If you require a record of these items click Print List.
4. To automatically allocate all of the outstanding transactions together and post a payment for the balance, click Pay All.
5. To manually select which items are to be allocated or paid, select the item lines then click Pay In Full.
