Batch Payments - Bills stays selected/ticked on multiple pages
Ability to make the invoices that have been ticked in the previous page stays ticked.
Purpose: Because it’ll save users’ time when they’re doing batch payments, especially when they have to tick all the invoices across multiple pages.
Thanks for your contributions and voting on this idea, community. While we're seriously taking on board your feedback for how and why being able to hold selections across pages would be helpful when processing batch payments, we want to be open that this isn't a focus area for product at this time.
We'll continually reassess ideas where there's opportunity, so please keep adding your votes and interest, here. If there's any development planned we'll be certain to share this with you all.

Hi, this would be very useful to our clients who have large supplier payment runs as they are currently having to raise these in several smaller batches.

This is extremely important for us as we have big payment runs.
At the moment duplicates our workload -

Our business struggles to mark all invoices which need to be paid in one go

I've just come across from MYOB due to Xero sales invoices importation/ which suits my application.However - I really don't like XEROs supplier payment system - very tedious. Maybe I am doing something wrong?

It is incredibly frustrating and time consuming to have to re tick all the bills after entering the planned date ... this is a change for the worse and not the better. It really needs to be changed back asap!
I suspect way more than 53 people would want this to change ... I just think people don't necessarily know about this suggestion area (I have only found out) so the number of people voting for it shoudn't be seen as an indication of how important it is ... I would have voted prior to now had I known. -

I wholeheartedly agree with Zivile Asakaviciene's comment
This is essential for businesses that make large numbers of payments - I cannot believe this feature is not there...

Option to show more than 200 items per page.

I also find that this would be useful when needing to click into a bill to check or edit it if ticked bills could stay ticked. It is extremely frustrating when having to start from the beginning each time re-ticking all of the previously checked invoices because they have become unticked. Doing this, or not checking invoices in doubt, would increase the likelihood of making mistakes due to the incorrect invoice being ticked. Not good business practice.

As in awaiting payments can only currently select up to 200 bills, having an option to see all or be able to select bills on one page as well as another at the same time if there are over 200 bills.

It would be super awesome to be able to build a batch payment using the Search bar to search add specific bills one at a time rather than having to scroll through long lists. Like the Find and Match feature in reconciliations. Also, super annoying when I want to batch a bill starting with A and a bill starting with Z but I can only view so many on a page so I have to make 2 batches as I lose the selection as soon as I change the page. Any developments to this?

I pay over 300 bills in one transaction at the end of the month. it is a huge drama when you only allow to tick 200. i have been doing 2 or more batch payments which is time consuming. as each batch payment you have to follow the multiple prompts then go back to dashboard, then to awaiting payments, then search, dates etc etc. such a mission. also need a GO TO TOP/BOTTOM of the page tab. to scroll up or down is so 90's. :/

I export our 20th payments into a spreadsheet so I have a summary per supplier. Our bills are becoming large and are excessing the lines available to show. Not having the ability to export our 20th payments in one spreadsheet and processing payments in more than 2 batches (3 last month) is extremely time consuming and frustrating. It is not an efficient way of working. Is there an addon that allows the consolidation of suppliers bills into one batch before payment?

Not having this future makes it time consuming to process payments.

I have given up waiting for this fix, I have gone to MYOB mainly because of this issue (amongst other program flaws).

It would be a great feature as it save me a lot of time paying the bills and sending multiple file to the bank instead of one.

Joe Seccull commented
Absolutely, please look at this as soon as possible - a lot of businesses in this situation and would be very helpful.

I myself run into problems as well as many MANY other clients of mine. It's so hard to do bill payments at end of month for businesses that get multiple bills per month. Not only can they not tick different invoices or suppliers on different pages, but also can't exceed 200 invoices in a batch. This is flawed and all other programs offer this functionality - This NEEDS to be fixed ASAP!!

When you have multiple payments for suppliers each month it will save time and be much easier when creating batch payments that the invoices on previous page stay ticked.
