Hi Meron, 
 Thanks for using our Product Support Community. 
 When posting batch invoices and credit notes for Customers, Suppliers and Subcontractors in Sage Accounts v22 and above, the software runs checks for potential duplicate transactions. To be flagged as duplicates, transactions must have the same: 
 
 Accounts reference 
 Date 
 Reference 
 Net amount 
 
 Transactions entered in the same batch and transactions that have previously been entered are both checked. 
 You can watch a video of how the duplicate transaction check works here . 
 If your software isn&rsquo;t performing these checks, you should make sure you have the feature switched on. To switch this feature on: 
 
 Click Settings , click Company Preferences , then click Parameters . 
 Select the Check for duplicates in Customer batch entries and Check for duplicates in Supplier batch entries , as required. 
 Click OK .
