Batch payments by bank deposit¶
A batch deposit is a convenient way to group customer payments and deposit them into your bank account. The feature lets you list multiple payments and generate a detailed deposit slip with a batch reference. This reference can be used when reconciling to match bank statement lines with transactions in the batch deposit.
