How to add Invoice amount to Email Subject line in QB Desktop?

I want to add my invoice amount to the email subject line when sending invoices. Before any 'experts' get on here trying to explain how to create an email template, that's NOT what I asked. I know how to create templates, I have several. I want the invoice amount to show up in the email subject line. How is this not possible in 2026?

How to add Invoice amount to Email Subject line in QB Desktop?

@windyl0u  I don't know, but given how badly QB mangled the Desktop e-mails recently, I'd be willing to call it even if QB stopped trying to improve the e-mails at all.

 

Whatever caused them to believe it'd be a good idea to (without notice!) add a line telling customers 'Please remember to pay this on time!' is beyond me.

I'm so flipping done with intuit. I'm actively looking for better options. I've used desktop since my daughter was 1, She just turned 23. The new invoice emails have me livid, they also screwed up the option to change the email template too. It will automatically send the default regardless of which template you choose. You can change the default, but you have to completely restart your computer for it to work. Saying "Your invoice is ready!" sounds so flipping ignorant on a PAST DUE invoice.
