Keeping batches together

When Keep batch together is selected, invoices are not sent to the target system until all of the invoices in the batch are completely verified or approved.

• When registering invoices, this means that the invoices are not sent to the target system until all of the invoices in the batch are verified.
• When posting invoices, this means that the invoices are not sent to the target system until all of the invoices in the batch are approved.
• In both cases, after the batch is ready to be sent to the target system, the invoices are sent to the target system individually. In this manner, the target system can return errors on individual invoices, without delaying the entire batch. Invoices are sent to the target system in the same order as they appear in the batch in Tungsten AP Essentials.

This can be beneficial, depending on target system and the routines of the organization. For example, if Visma Business is your target system, many operations are performed on batches, so it is more efficient to keep invoices together in batches in Tungsten AP Essentials as well.
