Hi H-TS
The Too Many Payments message is something that we are aware of occurring in the earlier versions of the software. We did work on a particular fix for this situation in the AccountRight 2017.1 version and remedied certain circumstances of it occurring.
With AccountRight 2017.2 and later the message will generally occur when you select a transaction, close the window without generating the ABA file the message will still occur for those ticked transactions. If you are wishing to generate an ABA file, tick the transactions in the Prepare Electronic Payments window and then generate the ABA file. If you are not wishing to generate the ABA file at this time don't tick those transactions this has been known to prevent that message from being generated.
I'll just also add that I'm not familiar with that particular message being more apparent in the AccountRight 2022.1 release for users. I haven't come across this particular message for a good year on my Forum travels. I appreciate that it is occurring for yourself and does impact you but it's not something that has been widely reported in recent times.
Thanks for the quick reply Steven_M . I wish all my questions were answered this quickly.

So this is still a known issue in anything after 2017.2 and I've just been fortunate enough to never have seen it? I always go into that window with the intention of creating an ABA file so I select the payments. I never go in there unless I plan to create a file. I'm pretty sure I would have selected items and then gone straight to close before but I know I have never seen that message before.
Guess I just have to hope that I don't end up doing this often or I'll be tearing my hair out. Any thoughts on the MYOB pop ups that stay floating over every other program too? At some point in the past years I submitted a separate post or idea on it but no resolution yet.
Thanks again.

Hi H-TS
In terms of the Information message that does appear when you open the Prepare Electronic Payment window, this will appear upon opening and would need to be closed (cross in the corner) to hide. Currently, to my knowledge, there are no immediate plans to automatically remove that pop-up from appearing, however, we have shared on your feedback (and others from the Community) that users would like to see that removed or not appear as it does.
