ACH payments

We are trying to pay more vendors with ACH instead of check in today's high fraud environment.  In the select for payment window there is nothing that shows the payment setting for vendors and nothing that allows you to select who is electronic and who is check.  I can't even find a vendor report that lists the payment type as a column to make doing this manually feasible.  This needs to be changed.  Very archaic.

    AGREED! I would love to be able to exclude the vendors marked as paid via electronic/ ACH from the list to print manual checks. From the same "select for payment" window, I would also like to be able to expand the window and make the view bigger so I can see more than 10 invoices at a time. As well as adding the option to tell me how many checks will be printed, not just the dollar amount being printed. I run about 8 different companies through one office so we do not have a single printer per company that just holds checks- we manually count out the number of vendors being paid and count out that number of checks to manually put into the printer. Having a "number of checks printed" detail next to the dollar amount being printed would save SO MUCH TIME!! This feature in addition to the feature of removing all vendors paid via Electronic/ ACH from the list would save me hours each month and make training new employees so much easier.

    In the attachment example, the view is the only size available, there are 3 different vendors selected for example- but the balance information only reflects dollar amount paid- NOT the number of checks being printed.

    Agreed - ACH is the way to pay now. Sage needs to get with the program and actually make useful changes to the program. The 2024 enhancements were in a word ... nothing!
