Receiving ACH Batch Customer Payments in Desktop

I'd be happy to share with you what does the batch action in QuickBooks is all about, @JimJayhawk.

Creating a batch transaction for receive payments is unavailable. You can individually apply the payments to an invoice manually.

Batch action allows you to print, email, and enter transactions in bulk.

To learn more about how to perform the action, please check out this article: Enter transactions by batch in QuickBooks Desktop.

Good Evening,

Could someone explain the statement below in more detail, does this mean I would ignore the bank fed, ACH batch transaction and manually mark the invoices as paid?

Thank you

Good Evening,

Could someone explain the statement below in more detail, does this mean I would ignore the ACH batch transaction and manually mark the invoices as paid?  QuickBooks will not allow you to mark more than one invoice as associated with a bank feed transaction.  I can create a unique Vendor and list the individual vendors that were paid with the ACH transaction, but then the 1099 Summary does not list the transaction that was part of the ACH batch.

Might be a change that Intuit can look to add in the future.

Thank you

Hello there, wambat53.

I see how convenient it is for you to  ACH batch transaction in QuickBooks Desktop. However, QuickBooks will not allow you to match one bank transaction to multiple existing entries on your bank feeds. 

To mark your invoices as paid, you can ignore the ACH batch transaction and manually apply individual payments for your invoices.

If you're using QuickBooks Payments (Merchant services), you don't need to do anything because the payments will sync with your transactions. Here's an article for more information: Automatically record QuickBooks Payments bank deposits in QuickBooks Desktop.

Please get back to me if you still have other questions about banking. I'll be here to help. Have a nice day!

Thank you for the response.  Seems like I simple improvement since the functionality is very similar to the receipt functionality in Receive Payments.
