I am currently having serious issues purchase order emails that the supplier says they have not received, yet we also copy the same PO at the same time to ourselves (and we receive it).
We send this supplier many Po's per day and it is only one or two (per month) that they say they do not receive (despite us receiving our copy).
It happens with PO's that involve the same drop ship customer (we tested today and they did not receive it three times yet we did).
We can forward the email PO from our account to them and they receive it fine.
We know QB's is sending it out (as we receive it)
We know that the supplier receives all other email PO's
The supplier is blaming QB's and says its not on their email server , its not in any junk or spam folder.
It causes us major issues as we assume it has been received and sent out and only when our customer calls to say they haven't received the good s do we determine that the supplier hasn't received it?
Any suggestions as to the cause?
Thanks

I am having the same issue. I called in and spoke with a QB rep and basically just said to verify my email addresses. I have done all that. I think there is some issues within quickbooks on the email end.
I appreciate you joining the thread, @Agplus. I'd be delighted to share some insights and provide additional steps to help you get around this issue you’ve encountered when sending Purchase Order emails in QuickBooks Online.
First, an issue like this when you’re unable to receive emails occurs when we encounter a browser-related issue. We can fix this by running some basic troubleshooting steps.
I suggest performing the steps through a private window. It's the best place to check for browser-related issues while working with QuickBooks. To save you time, use either of these keyboard shortcuts:
If it works fine, you can go back to your original browser and clear its cache to start fresh. You can also use another supported and up-to-date browser to narrow down the results.
