Welcome @HGM

To create a paired-end collection, I would suggest starting with this tutorial.

- [Hands-on: Using dataset collections / Using dataset collections / Using Galaxy and Managing your Data](https://training.galaxyproject.org/training-material/topics/galaxy-interface/tutorials/collections/tutorial.html)

We have more dedicated tutorials that cover batch processing here.

- [Using Galaxy and Managing your Data / Tutorial List](https://training.galaxyproject.org/training-material/topics/galaxy-interface/)

Hope that helps! 🙂
