Choose the party type (Supplier or Employee) and select the specific party you want to process payments for. The party name will auto-populate.

2. Fetch Outstanding Payment References

Use the "Get Outstanding Payables" button to fetch all the outstanding invoices, claims, advances, or dues related to the selected party within a specified date range.

This helps in identifying the payment amounts pending for approval or processing.

If needed, enable the "Merge as Single Payment" option to combine all selected payment references into one single payment instead of multiple transactions.

Once references are selected, click the "Create OBP" button to open a dialog where you enter payment specifics such as payment amount, company bank account, and transaction type (like IMPS or NEFT).

Confirm the details, and submit to generate bulk outward bank payment entries.
