How can I Post Multiple Invoice Entries at once in Metro Accounting System?
In Metro, you can post multiple journal entries (draft entries) at once using the batch posting feature. Here’s how you can do it:
1) Go to the ‘Accounting’ App by clicking on the Accouting application.
View Accounting Dashboard.
2) Go to Customers Invoices
In Metro, navigate to Accounting → Customers → Invoices.
Invoice List View
3) Filter Unposted Documents
Use the Filters option → Select “Draft” (or “Not Posted”) invoices.
This helps you see only those entries that are not yet posted.
4) Select Multiple Records
Tick the checkboxes beside the invoices 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 Invoices).
Metro will process all selected invoices together.
This window appears when you try to post multiple journal entries or invoices 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.
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.
