Why can't I memorise a bill payment? We have several suppliers that issue one invoice for payments to be made monthly, I can memorise the bill, but not the payments??

    I would suggest putting in a reminder for bills to pay and get the reminders to come up on the due date.

    Hi Dave,

    I agree with Kathy as there is no option to memorise a payment.

    Also you can go to Help > suggest new features in Reckon Accounts for our developers to look into for future releases.

    Cheers

    Has anything been done since 2016 to be able to memorise payments, as I have a monthly debit from our accounts that I would love to have set up so I don't have to go in every months and do it manually.

    What sort of transaction is it? Not all expenses need to have a Bill entered. For direct debits (eg loan repayments, bank fees, interest & others), you can memorise Chq payments (Write Cheque) to auto-enter 😁

    Annual fee, broken down into monthly instalments.

    Put bill in so I can keep track of how much is left to pay and when the year is over.

    Yes, Bill Payments are useful for tracking balances this way.

    Another option is to create a Write Chq posting to your Accounts Payable account (NO tax code!) set to auto enter as per the monthly debits. These will then show as monthly "Credits" in Pay Bills which you can allocate accordingly. (Not quite as quick as it's a 2-step process, but still allows the auto-entry setup, whilst still enabling tracking of the bill balance 😊)

    That’s good 😊

    (In the Customer:Job column, you need to select the Supplier name again also on that line)
