The easiest way to do this is to create it with a set amount and then change it once the batch is created.  That way it creates the batch they way you want it and all you have to do is change the amount.

You have to think, how is the system suppose to know how much the payment should be for.

Since you have already posted entries against to your GL Account for your bank, it will not match your actual bank balance if you are using the bank rec, you would have reverse those entries.

From now you would have to enter all deposits as deposits in the bank services bank reconciliation and choose the correct GL Account. Journal Entries to the GL Account made through GL will are not recognized by the bank services module and therefore don't affect the bank services "sub-ledger".

Hope that is clear.

My first question for you is what are you currently using for your accounting software or what is current system for accounting?

This is important as some accounting packages offer an upgrade path, for example simply accounting by sage upgrades to Sage Accpac ERP. If you upgrade, it is nice to have the history of your old system in the new one so you don't have to keep the other system runnning for history purposes.

The other thing to note is it looks like you will have 8+ users which eliminates most the of the small business packages.

Multiple locations can be handled by both Sage Accpac and Dynamics.

What is your industry, some software is better fit for different industries and if you have any other unique needs you may be limited to one two products.
