Xero BPAY Batch Functionality
As Xero do not provide a BPAY Batch feature, Parakeet seamlessly solves this issue where they will pull the data from Xero, generate the BPAY Batch File and then we can upload the batch file direct to the bank for payment. The set up process was nice and easy and the support was great.
