    There seem to be a few different requirements here, I want to see what we can do to help:
    - We have prepared a guide on an easy way to handle payments where you have multiple invoices, but one lump some payment from a payment processor into your bank: http://blog.xero.com/developer/handling-payment-processor-receipts-in-xero/

    - Another solution would be for users of the API be able to create a bank feed themselves from a payment service. You can vote for this API feature request here: http://xero.uservoice.com/forums/5528-xero-api/suggestions/340274-import-bank-statement-lines-via-the-api

    There are other questions that point more towards Xero feature requests rather than API functionality. I recommend you request these in our community forum: https://community.xero.com/business/topic/23/

    I will close out this request and we can continue the conversation in the links above.

    It makes sense that in Account Transactions it only shows 1 line for the 1 total payment.
    But when 1 payment has been received from 1 client but it covers 3 invoices, it comes up saying "Multiple Items" which is weird when it could just tell me who the client was?
    And then in situations where I have banked 3 cheques from 3 clients and the bank lists it as 1 total deposit, it comes up as "Multiple Items" which it more true, but can the Description line not list the clients? And be segregated in the View Transaction screen? All my clients payments are all jumbled up. Perhaps show the Transaction Line as it is but having a drop down list underneath on the same screen show the different clients totals? And then be able to View Transaction showing just the individual clients payment of the total deposit.
