2. You now have various ways to start loading transactions into the batch, namely, [Adding individual transactions](https://help.infoodle.com/help/finance/transactions/adding-individual-transactions), [Adding a collection of transactions](https://help.infoodle.com/help/finance/transactions/add-collection-transactions), [Adding bulk transactions](https://help.infoodle.com/help/finance/transactions/adding-bulk-transactions) and [Bank statement import](https://help.infoodle.com/help/finance/transactions/bank-import). You can use any of the above methods as many times as required in any sequence in order to build up a list of transactions that makes the batch. Therefore the batch can have any meaning that is most useful to you, be it donations from a specific event, or the weeks transactions etc.
