Fix undelivered invoices

Learn how to fix undelivered invoices in QuickBooks Online.

An email bounces or doesn't reach the person who got it if the email address is wrong or the email server is having a temporary problem. Make sure you associate the correct email address with each of your customer accounts. This is to make sure they receive their invoices and pay you on time.

Step 1: Check the status of the sent invoice

If you sent the invoice to multiple recipients, we can’t specify which one failed. This means if the invoice failed to deliver for 1 of 3 recipients, the status will say Delivery issue.

Here’s how to see when the invoice is undelivered to your customer.
