We have just changed from bill.com to QB bill pay as the two stopped syncing. I can no longer select multiple bills to pay in one transaction to a vendor. Please help!

Thank you for reaching out to the Community, @Yoni.

 

Let me guide you on how to pay multiple bills in one transaction using QuickBooks Bill Pay. The following are the steps:

 

  1. Sign in to your QuickBooks Online account.
  2. Click the +New button.
  3. Under the Vendors column, select Pay Bills Online.
  4. Check the boxes of the bills you want to pay.
  5. Click Next.
  6. Review all the payment details.
  7. In case you need to make updates, you can select Edit details.
  8. Hit Submit payment to hand in your scheduled payments.

 

Additionally, I suggest these articles related to QuickBooks Bill Pay that you can use in the future:

Hi Jean, I did as suggested but there is no 'pay bills online' under Vendors so I clicked on 'Pay Bills' but after attempting a multiple bill payment to one vendor all that came up was 'bill is marked as paid'. Now I am unsure if QB bill pay has sent a check or if QB just marked the bill as paid. I have not received an email notification so assume it's just marked the bills as paid?
Until very recently all bills were paid via Bill.com but when the 'pay bills online' link disappeared we signed up to QB Bill Pay and now the only way I seem to be able to pay via QB Bill Pay is per bill using the schedule payment option rather than pay per vendor. Would you please further advise?
Right now we are looking to cancel the QB Bill Pay subscription and revert to Bill.com even though that is significantly less convenient, it does at least hold all the vendor and contractor banking information.

Hello there, Yoni. I'm here to assist you regarding your concerns with your bill payments. 

 

My colleague previously provided you the steps on how to pay bills under the Vendors column. I'd like to clarify that what you were seeing which is the "pay bills" option is correct not the "pay bills online". For you to verify whether the bill which were "marked as paid" is accurate, you can:

 

      1.Go to the left navigation panel, Click Expenses.

      2.Choose Bills.

      3.Under Bills, you can see the paid and unpaid list of transactions.

      4.In the action column, you can click show payments.

      5.You can also click the dropdown button ▼ beside show payments to view/edit bill and delete bill. 
 

In QB Bill Pay, if you create a new bill, you will have the option to schedule the bill right away by clicking Save and Schedule Payment. For an unpaid bill, you can schedule them directly from Expenses, Vendors, or Bills. In the Payment account in QuickBooks dropdown▼, select the corresponding account from your QuickBooks Chart of accounts to sync your payment information accurately in your QBO account.

The pay multiple bills per vendor and have it "marked as paid" directly is available when you use the "pay bills" under the Vendors column in QuickBooks Online (QBO) which my colleague have shared the steps to above.

 

I'll share this article to give help you track bills and record payments in QBO: Enter and manage bills and bill payments in QuickBooks Online (intuit.com).
