Introduction

If a payment has been added to the wrong bank batch, you can remove it without deleting the transaction.
Once removed, the payment will return to the bank account as an individual entry, allowing it to be added to the correct batch or processed separately.

Remove a Payment from a Batch

  1. Open an Accounts screen (show me how).
  2. Open the [ Bank Account ] screen.
  3. Locate the bank batch that contains the payment you want to remove.
  1. Double-click the batch to open it.
  2. Find the payment within the batch and change its ID value to 0.
  3. Click OK to confirm the change.

Result

The selected payment will be removed from the batch and returned to the Bank Account screen as an individual transaction.
The payment can then be:
  • Added to a different batch.
  • Re-banked separately.
  • Reviewed before further processing.

Additional Information

Removing a payment from a batch does not delete the transaction. It simply breaks the link between the payment and the batch.
This is particularly useful if:
  • A payment was included in the wrong batch.
  • A batch needs to be reorganised before reconciliation.
  • A payment needs to be processed separately from the rest of the batch.

Tips

  • Double-check that you have opened the correct batch before changing the payment ID.
  • After removing the payment, refresh the Bank Account screen if required to see the individual transaction.
  • If multiple payments need to be removed, repeat the process for each payment within the batch.
