  • Hi! My name is Sergey and I'll be giving you a quick tour of batch2sepa.
  • This is a tool that helps you make payments and request direct debits with your bank within the SEPA region.
  • It processes bills and invoices directly from your Xero account!
  • Once you log into your account for the first time, you'll see that there are no connected organisations.
  • Let's go ahead and connect one.
  • Choose the organisation that you wish to connect, and click allow access.
  • This is an overview of available batches for the company we've just connected. Since we don't have any, let's go to Xero and create one.
  • Here's an overview of bills that are awaiting payments, available under "Business --> Bills to pay".
  • Select the bills you'd like to pay and click "Batch Payment".
  • I'd like these bills to be paid tomorrow, from my checking account.
  • Fill in the Details field for your internal reference and then click "Make Payments" to create a batch.
  • Now we should be able to view it in batch2sepa when we reload the page.
  • Perfect, we can now view all the details for our batch;
  • It seems like there are missing payment details for a few of our contacts.
  • Let's fill these in, and submit the changes.
  • All of these details will be saved in contact's information in Xero, so you only have to do it once.
  • As you can see, our bank account details got correctly picked up, so we're good to go!
  • Click "convert batch" to generate an XML file which can be uploaded into your bank portal to pay all these bills at once!
  • Hopefully this gives you an idea of how easy it is to make payments with batch2sepa.

  • Try it out for yourself at batch2sepa.eu!
