Can I create a recurring batch template? To enter multiple expenses at once, where each expense/line item posts individually, then use the same template next month?

Good day, livewithuni. 

I'll make you'll be able to create recurring template in QuickBooks Online (QBO). 

Currently, the option to create recurring batch template isn't available in QuickBooks Online (QBO). As a workaround, you can set up a recurring transaction for your expenses and assign a unique name for each template. 

To create recurring transactions:

1. Go to the Gear ⚙ icon.
2. Under Lists, select Recurring Transactions.
3. Click New, then choose Expense in the Transaction Type dropdown.
4. Hit OK.
5. Enter your desire Template name, then select Scheduled in the Type dropdown.
6. Fill in the rest of the information.
7. Once done, click Save template.

Thank you for your suggestion LeizylM. I am using recurring transactions for many expenses and deposits. Hopefully QBO will offer an option for recurring batch transactions in the future. One of the issues I have is a batch of 142 recurring monthly water bills. All monthly information remains the same, except for the date and amount, but I need each expense (142 of them) to post individually to my bank rec. Using recurring transactions, I would have to make 142 entries. 

Thanks for getting back here, @lisa-livewithuni. I want to ensure this will be taken care of.
