How to create batches in Sage X3

By | February 5, 2024

In Sage X3, (formerly known as Sage Enterprise Management or Sage ERP X3), ERP system refers to a method of transaction processing where your system collects data over a small period of time before processing and posting entries to your general ledger. Instead of processing each journal entry as it comes into your system, entries are “queued up” so that your ERP system can process them all at once.

Sage X3 makes your task easy and manage batches in your system. In this blog, we will show you how to use the batch entry function which allows you to enter multiple journal entries. So, that they can be validated and posted at once, saving you time and improving efficiency.

Step 1: Create new record:

You can access batch task through following steps:

Navigation > Financials > Financials > Journals > Batch entry.

For starting with adding multiple expenses, click on New Record.

A Batch Code field will be greyed out, this field will be automatically available when the batch is created.

Next, type the Entry Transaction Code (known as User Interface), site code, journal code, and a description.

Step 2: Enter Transaction:

To begin entering a transaction, select Yes and enter the Document Type.

Note: The document type must be authorized by the journal code. Add other details like Date, Currency, Site, BP, Account Number and finally the amount of transaction under Debit.

Step 3: Entering Balancing Transaction:

For each line that’s associated with journal entry. Select No and enter the Document Type.

Next, enter the Account Number and balancing figure.

Repeat steps 2 and 3 to enter as many as transactions you wanted to like for that batch.

Step 4: Click on create:

Once you are done with all the transactions, click on create. Once you saved a Batch Code field will be populated.

Now your batch is ready for validation and posting. If the batch is validated, the validation flag will display “Yes”. If it is posted the checkbox next to Posted is checked off.

You can save the batch which has not posted yet. However, it will not posted until all entries are balanced.
