I am using a microsoft exchange email server with Outlook. When I send click on the customer email address and send an email from QB, outlook comes up, sends the email just fine. It is then saved in my Outlook "sent" folder properly. However, the email is not saved in the "sent email" location in the customer file. What am I missing?
Hi there, rwk123.
All transactions that are sent to your customers should be logged in the Sent Email tab, regardless of the domain or server that's used. I'll share some steps with you that can resolve some of the most common program issues and unexpected results when performing a task in QuickBooks Desktop.
First, make sure that your QuickBooks is on the latest maintenance release. Here's how:
Second, let's repair QuickBooks. Here's how:
Note: If you're using Windows 8 or 8.1, search "Control Panel" in the Windows Start menu.
Note: If you don't see Programs and Features, select Programs instead. Then select Program and Features.
Note: The repair should start right away, but it may take a while to finish. You can leave it running, and come back once it's done.
Once done, go back to the customer profile and check if you can already see the transactions in the Sent Email tab.

Thank you. I completed each task. I sent a couple of emails to a dummy customer account. When I click on the email address in QB, Outlook comes up, email gets sent, it is received and saved in my "sent" folder in Outlook. However, it still not saved to the customer's "sent email" tab.
Thanks for keeping updated how the troubleshooting went through, rwk123.
