How can I Post Multiple Bill Entries at once in Metro Accounting System?

Here’s a clear step-by-step guide to post multiple vendor bill entries at once in Metro Accounting System.

1) Go to the ‘Accounting’ App by clicking on the Accouting application.



View Accounting Dashboard.


2) Go to Customers Bills

In Metro, navigate to Invoicing → Vendors → Bills.


Bills List View


3) Filter Unposted Documents

  • Use the Filters option → Select “Draft” (or “Not Posted”) bills.

  • This helps you see only those entries that are not yet posted.


4) Select Multiple Records

  • Tick the checkboxes beside the bills you want to post.

  • Or click the checkbox at the top-left corner to select all visible ones.


5) Use the Action Menu

  • Click Action → Post Entries (or Post Bills).

  • Metro will process all selected bills together.


This window appears when you try to post multiple journal entries or bills in Metro at once. It allows you to confirm and finalize all selected entries in bulk.

Once you post them, the system will validate and lock the entries — meaning you can’t edit them afterward.

The “Force” checkbox is used to override certain validation rules that might otherwise prevent posting.

When to Use It:

If some entries are missing optional data (like an analytic account or tax configuration).

If entries are dated in a closed or locked period, and you still need to post them urgently.

If there’s a minor mismatch or validation warning that you want to bypass.

6) Action → Post Journal Entries

Purpose: When you click “Post Journal Entries”, Metro will:

  • Validate all selected journal entries.
  • Change their status from Draft → Posted.
  • Make them read-only (cannot be modified).
  • Reflect them in your accounting reports and ledgers.

This is a batch posting action, so all selected bills get posted at once.
