I’m using ABA file to upload batch of payments. But the description part is always our company name. How can I change to invoice number? I mean ABA file can automatically include invoice number?
thanks
Hi Angelacjj,
Great question. When creating an ABA file, the description that shows on your bank statement (and the supplier's) usually pulls from the "Lodgement Reference" field in your payment setup. That's why it's showing your company name. If you'd like the invoice number to appear instead, you'll need to manually enter it into the Lodgement Reference before generating the ABA file. MYOB doesn't automatically pull the invoice number into that field for each individual payment in a batch. It stays the same for all unless you change it manually.
Bit of a bummer, I know! But if it's something you'd love to see automated, feel free to pop it on our Ideas Board. The dev team keeps an eye on it for future improvements.
Regards,
Sai
