Invoice Sender in Emails is now Quickbooks instead of my Company?

Good day, @SylvieBarredo.

 

I'll share some insights about sending invoices in QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE).

 

Once you send invoices to your customers, QuickBooks is the one that delivers them. This is the reason why it shows as the sender of the transaction. 

 

The name of your company will show as the subject of the email. Once your customers open it, they can easily identify it using your company's name. 

 

To get more details about sending invoices, you can check out this article: How to add products and services to an invoice and send it to your customers.

 

Moreover, you can set up online payments so customers can pay for their invoices electronically. 

 

Please let me know if you have any further questions or other QuickBooks-related concerns. I'll be here to help you. Have a great weekend.

Hello there,

I have exactly the same issue here.  Due to the fact that it looks like Quickbooks is sending the email out to my colleagues they either ignore the email or it goes into their spam.  I've now had several issues with invoices not being received due to this new format.  Is there no way this can be flipped so it appears as though the invoice is coming from myself?

Hey there, @150776.

 

Welcome to the Community! Thank you for joining this thread and sharing your concern. I'm here to share some steps for you to get around this.

 

Do you have a Gmail? In QuickBooks Online, you can now send invoices from your Gmail address, and we hope to add more email providers in the future. I'll show you how to set it up in no time.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Create an invoice or open an existing one.
  2. Once you fill out the necessary fields, select Save and send to open the preview window.
  3. Above the customer’s email, select the From dropdown.
  4. Choose Add Gmail address, then Connect Google account.

  5. Enter your Gmail address in the sign in window, then Next. If your computer remembers your Gmail, pick the email you want to use. Then Allow and you're good to go.
  6. Enter your Gmail password, then Next.
  7. Click Allow. Then you're ready to send invoices.

 

Then, if your customer wants to make a payment, enter the transaction manually.

 

We'd also appreciate to hear your thoughts and ideas through your account. Our product development team reviews all the feedback we receive to ensure we’re meeting the needs of our customers.

 

Here's how:

  1. Go to the Assistant feature.
  2. Type in Submit Feedback.
  3. Choose Add a feature.
  4. Enter your suggestions.

 

Keep me updated on how these steps turn out and let me know if you need further assistance managing your invoices. I'm always around to help.

I have this same issue. My clients now think that my invoices are spam and I am not being paid promptly. I have QBSE NOT the online version.

I hear your sentiments, @charlottehadlow.

 

I recognize the convenience of changing the sender of the invoices in QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE). I also understand that you want to make some changes and improvements to QBSE to meet your business needs. However, at this time, there's no integrated way to customize the email-sender of your invoices in QBSE is unavailable.

 

Rest assured that I'll relay this message to our team in concern here on my end. Please know that your feedback is valuable and we know our engineering team will be eager to hear it.

 

You can also share your thoughts and ideas through your account. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to Assistant located in the upper right-hand corner.
  2. Type Feedback and click the Add a feature button.
  3. Enter your request in the field.

 

Additionally, you may check out this resource to see different information on how QBSE tracks your business income and taxes: QuickBooks Self-Employed Overview.

 

Please know that you're always welcome to post a reply in this thread if you have any other questions about your QBSE account. I'll be here ready to assist you. Keep safe!

This is unacceptable that QuickBooks is hijacking my sender field. Twice I have not been paid on time because it went to a spam folder. Out going email needs to leave by my email software

 

give us a fix or lose the subscription please.

I MAY have actually figured this out, as it has been making me nuts for the past few days since I made the switch from Quickbooks Desktop to Quickbooks Online.  I actually went and used my business email address to create a gmail account. I was able to use my exact address even though it is not "@gmail.com" After doing so I was able to add that one into the "add gmail account" in the from dropdown when sending and invoice.  For the past few tries, it seems like it is working!

Hi,

I could add my company email address to QB, but I cannot change the sender's name. Our company's name appears as sender, but not me, personally. Our members think it's a spam, because they always receive the invoices from me directly. Any suggestion how to change the sender's name? Thanks!

Let me share some insights, EC2024.


The sender's name and email address need to be modified. However, changing the sender's name or email address won't be possible since it is system-generated.

 

I've added this article for more information about sending invoices in QuickBooks Self-Employed. Create invoices in QuickBooks Self-Employed. You can also find other helpful articles here for guides and tutorials. 

 

I'd like to know how things went after you tried the steps. We're here if you need more help. Feel free to reach out to us again. Have a good day!
