Create multiple batches at once using Journal Entry Batch Add-in

Angela Burke

I have multiple journal entries to make, but I do not want them all recorded in a single batch. I would like them to be separate batches. I was wondering if there was a way to use a batch ID to create multiple journal entries at once with the Create JE Batch add-in for FE NXT. Prior to using the add-in I was able to create and import multiple batches at once using database view. It used the batch ID as the unique identifier and imported the entries to each separate batch all at once. I did not have to import multiple times. It was a real time saver doing it that way. Maybe there is a setting for the create journal entry batch add-in I am unaware about to achieve this???

Currently no as the JE add in makes a new single batch each time you click submit. If you want to import multiple batches in one go , you can use the traditional import from Database view and we should see the webview version hitting very soon, that uses the same import templates and parameters. The trick there is to make all the JE's and save them blank so you can get the Batch numbers. Then use those in the import template to guide each row the the JE you'd like it to be in once imported.
