Batch Payments

Odoo 19 Enterprise · Accounting

Batch payments group multiple individual payments into a single bank deposit or transfer. This simplifies reconciliation when many payments are processed together.

When to use batch payments

Use batch payments when depositing multiple cheques to the bank in one trip, when processing multiple vendor payments in a single bank transfer, or when submitting a SEPA Direct Debit batch file. Batch payments make reconciliation easier because the bank statement shows one line matching one batch, not many individual payments.
