Now, in my scenario, vendor bills have a custom field (special type) which is a list of values. I need to ensure that no one creates a vendor payment from the pay bills UI, with vendor bills with differnt SPECIAL TYPE. Is tehre any way to interact with the Pay Bills form?

11/09/2021, 4:46 PMIf you need to always group bills together based on the special type, the only way to do that is to modify the billing address on the bill to make it unique to each group. That will force NS to not group all of them together and will generate separate payments.
