Introduction
Marking offline payments one by one can be tedious and time-consuming, especially when dealing with high volumes of transactions. To streamline this process, institutes can now use the bulk upload feature to mark multiple offline payments at once by uploading data files.
This not only saves time but also reduces manual errors and ensures smoother payment data management. This feature is especially helpful for institutes getting started on the platform mid-session, where there’s often a need to mark previously collected payments.
