This absolutely must be made possible, it's ridiculous that we are forced to process proforma as bills in order to include them in a batch, when there's no tax invoice.
And when the supplier eventually sends us the tax invoice, often time it doesn't show the payment we previously made, so we end up paying twice for the same order, as it's almost impossible to track having high volume of bills daily.

The only way to go about it is to create a prepayment, which currently can only be done one a time. It's madness, change it!

I liked also how MYOB allowed you to include a "Spend Money" transaction with creditors so you only had to updload one payment file.

I used this function all the time in MYOB - would definitely make life easier!

Has there been any updates on the ability to create aba files in Xero ?

I agree I have spent some time today trying to find a way to pay a one off payment without an invoice but couldn't do this. MYOB is so much easier you can just pay from spend money and create an aba file to upload to the bank, it so easy, Xero you need to make this function available.

This would save so much time and increase accuracy. We need it for making payments to partners.

Odd not to have these payments consistent with the bill payments.

Xero to provide a facility to make ABA file payments for Non-Supplier (Non-Bill) items. Similar to MYOB where it provides an option to create ABA file for "Spend Money" items.

Yes agree that this is a required function in the day to day running of an actual business. Not all payments stem from a Tax Invoice.

Thanks Olivia for creating this. I agree this is a critical time saving function. We shouldnt have to create bills for the Ato or for things like shareholder dividend payments or any other payments that do not require a bill. by having the batch file function also means that the transaction is being paid to the correct bank account every time. At the moment i am having to set the contacts up that we pay without Bills into our online bank system. but if one of them change their bank details i will have to remember to not only update it on their contact card in Xero but to update the bank recipient in the online banking. Extra steps that shouldnt be required.
thank you, hopefully we can get enough votes to make a change
