Closing a payment batch Closing a payment batch indicates that new payments can no longer be added to it. Load the payment batch you want into the Payment Batch InfoViewer. You access the Payment Batch InfoViewer by clicking the Batch # link for the batch on any form that shows the link. On the Batch tab, click the Modify Batch Information link. In the Modify Batch Information dialog box, enter the batch's closing date in the To field. Select Closed from the Batch Status list. If the batch is ready to post, select the Ready to Post check box. Infor Public Sector automatically changes the batch's status to Closed and enters the current date in the To field when you select Ready to Post.
