The Check Batch Object

The Check Batch Object is primarily utilized by the Payology Check Scanning App to group the Check Items which have been scanned. It is also the mechanism used to invoke triggers that execute the transmission of check items within the Batch to the Check21.com Payment Gateway. This can be done both manually or automatically.

Please note that the Payology Mobile Check Capture App does not utilize this record in its workflow.
