# Set up several accrual journal batches

If you need several accrual journals of a certain type, create several accrual journal batches for an accrual journal template.

## Steps

1. In the search box, enter **Accrual Journal Templates**, and then choose the related link.
2. On the **Accrual Journal Templates** page, select the line containing the template for which you want to set up batches.
3. On the **Navigate** tab, in the **Template** group, choose **Batches**.
4. Fill in the first empty line to create a new accrual journal batch. Fill in the **Name** and **Description** fields and other fields if required.
5. Close the page.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> Numbers have a special function in journal names. If a journal template name or journal batch name contains a number, the number automatically advances by one each time the journal is posted. For example, if HH1 is entered in the **Name** field, the journal name changes to HH2 after the journal named HH1 has been posted.
