Batch Printing and Emailing

The batch method is an easier and faster way to either print or email transactions—it gives you the ability to handle similar transactions as a group or batch. Depending on the form type, you can either batch print and email or only batch print.

Form Type Batch Function
Invoices Print and Email
Packing slips (Sage 50 Premium Accounting) Print
Sales quotes Print and Email
Sales orders Print and Email
Receipts Print and Email
Purchase orders Print and Email
Cheques Print
Direct deposit payroll stubs Print and Email
Direct deposit payment stubs Print and Email

You can still use the Print or Email command in a transaction window to print or email an individual form.

Filtering items

To display only the items you need to batch print or email in the Batch Print/Email window, you can either filter the list or remove older items. However, after you remove items from the list, you can still display or look them up in their respective transaction windows.

The Batch Print/Email window does not batch process and print transactions like the Daily Business Manager. The batch processing and printing feature found in the DBM is used when you want to batch process and print recurring sales transactions and purchase payments.

Note: When you first install Sage 50 Accounting, the batch print and email option is on. To turn it off, see Turn On or Off Batch Printing and Emailing for a Form.
