Overview
Batchly extends Xero’s bill payment workflow for finance teams managing high payment volumes.
Xero works well for day-to-day accounting, but payment runs can become time-consuming as volumes grow. Bills may need to be processed across multiple batches, supplier credit notes applied individually, and remittances handled separately. This creates more manual work, greater risk and less visibility across the payment process.
Batchly brings these steps into one structured workflow that works alongside Xero.
Select hundreds of authorised bills in one place, include available supplier credit notes, review payment amounts and generate one bank file for the run. Once payments are completed, send supplier remittances in bulk and retain a clear record of the entire process.
There is no need to open every bill or apply credit notes one by one.
Control and clarity across every payment run
Each payment run is tracked as a single record. Your team can see which bills were selected, which credits were allocated, how much was paid and which remittances were sent. This provides a clear audit trail and makes past payment runs easier to review.

The result is faster payment processing, fewer errors and clearer visibility from bill selection through to supplier remittance.
Batchly + Xero
Batchly connects directly to Xero using secure OAuth authentication.
Once connected, Batchly reads authorised bills, supplier details, and available supplier credit notes from your Xero organisation. It uses this information to build structured payment runs without changing your existing accounting workflow.
How the integration works:
-
Bills
Batchly retrieves authorised bills with outstanding balances from Xero, so finance teams can select what needs to be included in a payment run. -
Credit notes
Available supplier credit notes are brought into Batchly and can be applied during the payment process, reducing the need to allocate credits manually in Xero before payment. -
Contacts Supplier information, including bank account and email details, is used to support bank file generation and remittance delivery.
-
Payments
Once a batch is processed, payments are created back in Xero so your accounting records stay aligned with the bank file. -
Organisation data
Batchly respects your organisation’s base currency and configuration to keep calculations and outputs consistent.
What Batchly does not do:
Batchly does not replace Xero’s accounting engine. Xero remains your source of truth for financial data. Batchly focuses on the operational payment workflow: selecting bills, applying credits, generating bank files, creating payments, sending remittances, and keeping a clear audit trail.
Security and control:
- Secure connection using Xero OAuth
- Access limited to the Xero permissions required for the payment workflow
- No storage of bank login credentials
- Clear visibility of actions performed during each batch
Data accuracy is a core priority. Batchly helps ensure payment amounts reflect applied supplier credits and any approved payment adjustments, reducing overpayments and reconciliation issues.
By integrating tightly with Xero while staying focused on payments, Batchly gives finance teams a more controlled way to manage high-volume supplier payment runs without changing their accounting system.
