How to record multiple supplier payment

Hi all,
I have searched everywhere and cannot locate where I can make multiple payments to suppliers, instead of doing them individually.
Could someone please tell where I can find this option?

    Hey seagoat,

     

    If you're looking to record multiple suppliers with multiple bills, that can't be done. You can only process payments for one supplier with multiple bills at a time under the Record supplier payment window. However, once you've saved the supplier payment and it appears in the Prepare Electronic Payments window, you can select multiple suppliers with their bills in one go. This allows you to process multiple payments together electronically.

     

    Best regards,

    Doreen

    Hi Doreen_P 
    Thanks for you response.
    So I am guessing it is not like Xero where I can select mulitple differnt suppliers and record a supplier payment in one go?
    I have to do them individually?

    I can see when creating my ABA file I can then select them all in one file, but just seems silly that I need to select everyone individually

      Hi seagoat , have a look at the To-do list for Payables; you can select multiple bills for multiple suppliers there, and when you click Process, multiple Pay Bills transactions will be generated, one per supplier. 

       

      Before you go there, you may need to change the default bank account for paying suppliers* to the electronic clearing account, so that you can process a bank file. (*Set-up, Linked accounts, supplier accounts)

      Hi seagoat,

       

      Yes, that's right. You can't select multiple suppliers with multiple bills and then record the supplier payment. That can only be done when the payments are already showing under the Prepare Electronic Payments window, and you'll need to select which transactions you'd like to include on the ABA file.
