Hi the QBO mobile app has never let me send an invoice reminder from within the app. The button exists but it uses the standard email for invoice not reminder. Why?

Hi woodsee-

 

Could you clarify what isn't working for you? Is the button not responding when you select it, or is it working, but only sending the same invoice template that has been previously sent? 

 

Let me know and I can start troubleshooting on a solution.

It sends the standard invoice email template not the overdue reminder template. Also this support system doesn’t work properly on mobiles. So frustrated with QBO.

Hi there, woodsee.

 

Currently, sending overdue reminder template using QuickBooks Mobile app is unavailable. This is only available when accessing QBO through a web browser.

 

Before doing that, you'll have to set up an invoice reminder from Account and Settings.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Select the Gear icon at the top right. Then choose Account and Settings.
  2. From the left menu, select Sales.
  3. Go to the Reminders section and select the pencil icon.
  4. Update settings such as the Subject and Email message. The default message can be set from the Reminders section.
  5. Select Save then Done.

 

Once done, please follow the steps below on to how manually send the reminder to all overdue invoices.

 

  1. Click Sales on the left side menu and choose Invoices.
  2. Click into Overdue Invoices under Status column to expand the page. All invoices that are overdue will appear on the left-hand side.
  3. Select the Send invoice link.
  4. Type anything about overdue invoices in the Message box. 
  5. Fill in the other necessary field. Like, Subject and To.
  6. Click Send.

Less impressed every day.  The app should do everything the web browser version does or just simply allow a mobile browser version and drop the useless app except for mileage tracking.  Would save development coats on this waste of space.

I would hope the executives read these responses. The amount of time Intuit Team Members likely take to give us their best responses and I know they are trying their best. Is unsatisfactory. 

 

Make a button to send a reminder. The invoice exists in your cloud not my computer. You are able to send price increase emails quite easily, at this point  every 3 months it seems. 

 

Support your employees and clients better, you're more than capable.
