Does your app create BPAY batches or is it something else?
Yes, you can choose between receiving a BPAY batch (suitable for your bank) or BPAY auto-pay (where we pay the BPAY bill for you).

Normally it is either 2pm on the "Planned date" you set in Xero or 1 business day before the due date if the bills are already approved and ready in Parakeet.
