Even though the PDF attachment box is checked under online delivery in our account settings, the PDF attachments are not being sent with the invoice to our customer. How can I fix this?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Thanks for posting to the Community, @kross1.
I can see that you have already checked the Online delivery option to send invoices. Allow me to share additional insights to accomplish sending PDF attachments to your customer's invoice.
You'll have to tick the Show full details in the email option from the Online delivery section from the Accounts and Settings. In this way, all the information in your sales entry will show up on your customer's email.
To do that:
Once done, you'll want to open the invoices you want to send to your customer.

I am having the same issue. I've been using it for years with no problem whatsoever, and just yesterday the email was received by customer with no invoices attached.
I can't find the gear icon you are referring to , is this only for online QB? I have quickbooks desktop 2021 and have always used my webmail. No changes were made on preferences or send form , but just yesterday my customer replied email was without invoices attached ( I copied myself and I didn't get them as well)
Also, not sure if this is related or not...but the last couple of weeks, everytime I emailed the invoices I would receive a message back on my mail saying "delivery has failed to these recipients" and there's an unknown email that was NOT included on my sent list
Please help
I did this months ago and recently found that some invoices for customers have the PDF attachment and some do not. This was easy to see as customers paid the invoices that had the PDF attachment and ignored the invoices without them. I had to go into settings and found that it was unchecked for invoices again (curious as I did not do this). The only thing that seems different is the updated sales layout. Is QBO inadvertently resetting previously checked settings when it updates the site?
Thanks for chiming in on this thread and sharing the details of your concern, @Admiralnyc. I'm here to clarify a few things for you.
Since QuickBooks Online (QBO) is a cloud-based platform, all the data entered and checked preferences in your settings will automatically sync for any web/browser logins.
If you aren't sure if there have been any changes, I suggest checking the audit log in your QBO account. This way, you can see who made changes to your books and what entries or adjustments they made. I'll show you how:
In some cases, QBO will automatically create specific user profiles to track certain actions in the audit log. You can check out this article for more details about this feature: Use the audit log in QuickBooks Online.
Additionally, feel free to save these resources that will help you with personalizing your QBO account to whatever you need to change:
Feel free to get back to me if you need further assistance with managing your QBO account. I’ll be more than happy to work with you again. Have a good one!
Hi, I have QB Enterprise so I do not have the version your answer works for. Out of the blue, when I click on "Email invoice & attached files" in "create invoices", my attachment will not attach to the email. I have been doing this for 5 years. I noticed the check mark box next to the attachment isn't checked automatically anymore & if I check mark the box myself, it doesn't stay check marked, so QB doesn't recognize there is an attachment.
The below does not work because I do not have this version of Quickbooks:
You'll have to tick the Show full details in the email option from the Online delivery section from the Accounts and Settings. In this way, all the information in your sales entry will show up on your customer's email.

I have been able to get my account set up so that I can send attachments in my invoice email to customers. However, each attachment currently appears as its own separate file that is attached to the body of my email. Is there a way to configure my settings so that my attachments are concatenated with my PDF invoice in a single attachment file in my invoice email?
Thanks for joining the Community and getting involved with this thread, hornabro.
