Invoicing Problems

For the last 7-8 months we have been having persistent problems with QBO invoicing. When we create an invoice and email it from within the QBO environment, the result pdf is garbled. We have contacted QBO support and they have suggested:

1. Provide a Feedback through the Feedback button

2. Provided us with a tracking ticket

3. Re-boot the PC

4. Try a different browser (tried on 3 PCs and 1 Laptop with Windows and Mac, Safari, Chrome, Edge)

 

We have had to go back the old way of saving the invoice PDF onto the Desktop and emailing it as an attachment from Outlook. I have requested us to be upgraded to the "new version" of invoicing for several months now, but nothing has happened.

 

Does anybody have any suggestion to solve this problem?

 

After paying a substantial amount to Intuit, the service/product we are getting is poor.

Invoicing Problems

This isn't the impression we want you to experience, @GBE. I'm here to assist you with your concern in QuickBooks.

 

The browser may be full of frequently accessed page resources that cause some unusual responses. To isolate this, let's access QuickBooks Online (QBO) using a private or incognito window.

 

  • Press Ctrl Shift (Google Chrome).
  • Ctrl Shift (Firefox).
  • Control Option (Safari).

 

Once signed in, you can try sending the invoice to one of your emails and double-check if you're getting the same thing. If it works, go back to your original browser and clear the browser's cache to delete the temporary Internet files. You can also use other supported, up-to-date browsers to be thorough.

 

However if the issue persists, it's possible that this is something to do with the PDF. Ensure to update Adobe reader to prevent any issues.

 

I've also added these articles that will help you customize your invoice template and how to send invoice reminders:

First off, Sorry for the late reply. I have been traveling. 

All of the solutions have been tried several times, recently and in the past. None of them have worked. I've tried with multiple computers just to make sure and have had the same issue.

Thanks for getting back here, GBE.

 

I appreciate the update your sharing with us after following the recommended steps. I've also read the previous replies and it looks like all the applicable troubleshooting steps have already been given to you. 

 

In this case, I recommend reaching out to our phone and chat support teams. They can take a closer look at this to determine what's causing the issue and make sure the invoices are emailed without any issues.

 

Here's how to reach out to them:

 

  1. Click the Help menu in the upper-right hand corner of your QBO account.
  2. Type in "Talk to a human" in the chatbox, then press Enter. Then, type in the same keyword and press Enter one more time.
  3. Select No.
  4. Choose between Chat with us or Have us call you.
