Batch Deposit - More than 50 transactions
We need to deposit > 50 transactions on a daily basis. We can't marry up our remittances to our deposits recorded in Xero when done in multiple parts. It's messy and not workable for large volume businesses.

Hi, we need to pay more than 50 invoices/deposit, I can see on this chat this has been questioned since 2022. Is this something Xero will look at so we can deposit more than 50 invoices at a time? It is messy and not workable for large volume businesses.
Can you please advise?

This feature of more than 50 would be really useful as we often get batches of up to 100 invoice on a remittance and its a very long winded process trying to reconcile them through the bank - so much easier creating a deposit in the Sales Overview section.

I'd like to be able to do a batch deposit for over 50 invoices.

Increase batch deposit to enable over 50 invoices to be selected

This impacts us significantly too, so a CSV upload feature would be incredibly useful!

Still nothing from the Xero camp on this. Hugely disappointing as we are now dealing with around 700 transactions at once and its a major headache. I have no idea why Xero even have this page - they don't acknowledge anything. Listen to your customers Xero, like you used to.

Hi Jamie
Yes, you can - I have to do this all the time split my payments into circa 50 transactions at a time and then when it comes to bank recs I just pick all the batches to make up the one payment - annoying as **** but I hope a short term fix.

Hi, sorry haven't read all the replies for this - has anyone tried breaking these up into more than one deposit? Can you still match this when the payment comes in to multiple deposits? Thanks

Hi all,
I also have another Idea regarding this. If Xero has ability to perform bulk upload of batch deposits it will be more easier to us. If we can do that by using CSV file, same as we are doing for invoices bulk upload, it will save lot of our time. -

Any update if this is in the pipeline???? I agree with one of the comments, if I had
known page view could not be increased I would of looked elsewhere!!! -

I have a customer that routinely has 200 - 300 purchases a month - Please ensure this is done quickly to save a lot of time!

Please Please Please develop the ability to batch more than 50 deposits at a time. This is so limiting and time consuming for many of your xero clients. It is a known and ongoing issue for so long that surely its at the top of your product development board by now? Please give us some good news soon.

I second Lucy's comment -- I have only just started using Xero and am quite amazed that this limitation exists. We regularly receive payments from customers of many hundreds of invoices. Will seriously be considering jumping ship if this is not resolved.....

If i had known this was the case i wouldn't have started using Xero. Our customers pay hundreds of invoices at a time

All, we utilize a bank lockbox service. The bank creates a batch deposit that comes into our bank account register as a lump sum.
We receive a PDF report of all of the deposited checks (and check stubs). We wrote a utility that extracts the information from the PDF, uses the information to match payments to customers with outstanding invoices (leveraging the Xero API). The daily lockbox deposits run from 1-200 checks. We usually automatically match about 70%-80% payments to a customer's invoice(s). Probably would be higher, but the information from the bank lockbox report often contains errors on check routing numbers, account numbers, etc.
A deposit of 50 checks usually takes about 10-15 minutes to post.
This same utility could be leveraged to utilize CSV/XLSX data files for batch deposits.
Wondering if anyone would be interested in this an application?
Current features
- Stores information for three bank accounts to one customer
- Allows for overpayments to be posted to a customer's account
- Allows for one check to be posted to multiple accounts - we deal with property managers that have as many as 200 properties, all of which are set up as separate customer accounts in Xero.
- Searching by specific invoice numbers for when the name on the check does not match the Xero customer name.Thoughts?
If you contact me, please let me know what you would consider a reasonable price for this service in US Dollars.

Sadly, this request just falls on deaf ears at Xero. We are now looking at alternatives. A shame as we were early adopters of Xero in 2008.

Xero come on please, so time consuming breaking down remittances into groups of 50 when it could be done in one hit- did anyone find other software that does this? seriously thinking of jumping ship as we grow Xero is dragging us down in admin

Recent errors occurring when making large batch payments has resulted in a Xero recommendation to raise a request for the problem to be resolved.
Your support will help so please give a vote or comment.When making large batch payments Xero has been unable to cope with processing payments larger than the 'soft' limit of x50 Invoices (this includes single and multiple contacts).
As businesses grow so do clients and it would be more beneficial if large batch payments had a limit of 200 Invoices per payment without errors. We can view x200 Invoices max per page so why can't we pay this amount?Please Xero raise the limit on batch payments.

Would be an incredibly useful tool to assist Xero users who receipt payments for customers with large invoice payment quantities.
For example our company has a particular customer that has 8 branches that they pay in bulk monthly and this will have upwards of 500 invoices paid at a time. Creating batch deposits without the restriction of 50 per deposit would be extremely helpful!
Using the Find & Match function for this is not a viable option for this kind of reconciliation as the selecting button starts to lag over the 150 invoices mark creating the opportunity for selection errors.
Please consider this as a great upgrade to the programme Xero!
