Finalizing a Direct Batch Paige Freeman April 04, 2023 13:26 Updated Direct batches are "finalized" rather than "posted", because each receipt is posted as it is entered. Finalizing the batch prevents it from being used again. To finalize a direct batch: Search for and open the details of the appropriate direct posting batch. For more information, please see Searching for a Batch.The batch details screen displays. From the Actions menu, select Finalize Direct Batch.
