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.
Configuration
=============
Go to :menuselection:`Accounting --> Configuration --> Settings --> Customer Payments` and tick
:guilabel:`Batch Payments` to activate the feature.

Items` on the related bank account. Go to the :guilabel:`Batch Payments` tab to select a specific
batch and click :guilabel:`Validate` to finalize the process.
