Direct Pay Vendors - Payment application without using manual payment method

unknown

We currently have many utilities vendors that automatically pull payment from our bank account. Currently we process them as CB transactions, but we would like to switch them over to AP transactions. I am running into an issue with automating the payment unless we use AP55 (Manual payments) which is not ideal since they have to be run by vendor. Since there are a lot of vendors, we would like the payment to process automatically on the withdraw date, and post payment but not pay the vendor since they have already withdrawn their money. I am wondering how others process these automatically withdrawn amounts, and if I should approach this in different way.

we have quite a few vendors that pull funds from our bank account. We do process their invoices through AP, but we set their vendor numbers up with a unique Cash Code so that we can run the AP payment process (AP150, AP160, and AP170). NO actual payments are created as the vendor is already paid, but beause of the way the Cash Code is set up our Bank GL codes are updated correctly, and the AP invoices is updated as paid. if you need some screen shots to see the detail of what we do, please let me know.
