Managing Batches

In NextGen® Enterprise PM, batches are sets of payment, adjustment, and refund transactions. You can create batches for each location, each day, or for each practice. For example, a batch can be created for a check-in staff to record all the transactions for the day. You can secure a batch or an enterprise batch grouping to a single user for security purposes. Any user without the appropriate security rights cannot access the transactions in the batch. You can also choose to remove an entire enterprise batch grouping from the list if none of the sub-batches are secured to the current user. You can use the Batch Maintenance window to manage batches for a given practice. Batch Status You can use the batch status for payment batches to denote the flow of line item balance.
