Use the AP Initialize Payments form to add groups of invoices into a payment batch in preparation to pay the invoices.

Access this form from the AP Payment Posting form by selecting Tasks > Initialize Payments.

When adding invoices into a payment batch, there are several selection options to determine what transactions are pulled into the batch. By using the selection criteria to their fullest capacity, you can include as many payable transactions as you want, or you can tailor the selection process so that only a few specific transactions are selected.

This form adds invoices directly to a batch. If you want to review invoices before adding them to the batch, use the AP Payment Workfile form. For more information see AP Payment Workfile Form.
