Before you can launch Conga Batch, you must first set up a Salesforce formula field. See the article Convert a Conga Composer Button to a Formula Field Using the Conga Formula Builder in the Conga Batch guide for instructions.

If your Conga Batch solution uses Salesforce Reports to gather additional data, you must modify the solution to use a SOQL query to gather the additional data when using Conga Grid. This is due to session limitations within Salesforce. Contact your Conga support representative to help with this conversion if needed.

Users can merge a maximum of 75 records when launching Conga Batch from Conga Grid.
