# What Is the Difference Between the Multiple Payment Form and the Multiple Payee Payment Form?

## Learn which form to use for batch payments and how void and reissue works for each

You may be wondering which form to use when processing batch payments. You may also be asking whether void and reissue works the same way for both. This article explains the key differences and helps you choose the right form.

---

### The Core Difference

|  | Multiple Payment Form | Multiple Payee Payment Form |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Payees | One payee per form | Multiple payees in one form |
| Payee types supported | Vendor, Individual, or Employee | Vendor, Individual, and Employee all in the same batch |
| Payment methods | Same method for the whole batch | Can mix methods per payee row, for example autopay for one and manual check for another |
| PO-linked invoices | Yes, for Vendor payee type | Yes, for Vendor payee type |
| GL posting level | One combined batch | Per payee row |

---

### Multiple Payment Form

Use this form when you need to pay one payee for several invoices in a single batch. All invoices on the form go to the same vendor, individual, or employee. The entire batch is treated as one grouped payment.

**Where to find it:** Payments \> Forms \> Multiple Payment Form

Key behaviors:

- One payee type per form
- Batch header fields apply to the entire form including check memo and invoice date
- All invoices in the batch share the same autopay setting
- When processed manually, all invoices must be selected together in Check Batch Processing. Missing any will cause an error.
- The grand total of all combined payments appears on the check and check stub

---

### Multiple Payee Payment Form

Use this form when you need to pay multiple payees in one submission. You can mix vendors, individuals, and employees in the same batch. Each payee row is handled independently.

**Where to find it:** Payments \> Forms \> Multiple Payee Payment Form

Key behaviors:

- Multiple payee types supported in one form
- Autopay can be set differently per payee row
- Payments are grouped by payee type with color coding: vendors in neutral, individuals in gold, employees in blue
- Each group shows its own subtotal with a grand total at the bottom
- Employee payments without ACH must go through Check Batch Processing as manual checks

Note: Forms created before the name update may still appear as Multiple Vendor Payment Form. They are fully functional.

---

### Void and Reissue Behavior

This is a common point of confusion. Here is how it works for each form.

**Multiple Payment Form:**  
The entire form is treated as one combined payment. When you void and reissue it, all invoices on the form are voided and reissued together as a single unit. You cannot void and reissue individual invoice lines.

**Multiple Payee Payment Form:**  
The form is more granular. Void and reissue can be applied per individual payee line, or across all payees if that option is selected. This gives more control when only one payee in the batch needs to be corrected.

**Individual Payment Form:**  
For reference, the Individual Payment Form is supported on the Void and Reissue form.

### Quick Reference: When to Use Each Form

| Situation | Use This Form |
| --- | --- |
| Paying one vendor for multiple invoices | Multiple Payment Form |
| Paying multiple vendors or payees in one submission | Multiple Payee Payment Form |
| Mixing autopay and manual check in the same batch | Multiple Payee Payment Form |
| Need to void and reissue one payee without affecting others | Multiple Payee Payment Form |
| Need to void and reissue the entire batch as one unit | Multiple Payment Form |
