Some organizations assign a batch number or code to all of the invoices that are entered together. Usually, when your organization has more than one person entering invoices at the same time. You can assign a batch number to each of those users so they can process reports based on their batch number.
Is there a batch number?
Yes, there is a batch number. Click Options (F12). Then, use the Batch field to enter the batch number. For example, MM-BB where "MM" is the two-digit month and "BB" is the batch number that is assigned to you.
No, there is not a batch number. Leave the Batch field blank.
A bank is an establishment for the custody or exchange of funds. Select the bank you will use to process invoices. Usually, the bank field is left blank so you can select which bank you will use to pay the invoice.
Which bank will be processing invoices?
I want to use an existing bank. Next, select a bank from the Bank drop-down list. When you select the bank, Connect will use the selected bank to pay the invoice.
I want to select the bank for each invoice. Leave the Bank field blank.
Show me more information about the bank. Click Additional Information, this button is located at the end of the Bank field.
You can set up the default options to save the invoice when you enter a blank value in the description, GL account, or GL activity.
Use the current date as the default value for the invoice date. You can replace the default date when you set up or modify an invoice.
Set up the default options to use the quantities, amounts, totals, and so on that are recorded on the invoice to update the purchase order detail so the information saved on it will match the invoice detail.
