I have 17 recurring invoices that are supposed to send out on the 1st of each month. I had to upgrade my subscription just to access recurring invoices and yet it does not send out. Do I missunderstand what recurring invoiceing is supposed to do?
Hello,
As long as you have QBO Essentials, Plus or Advanced, then you can do recurring transactions.
A few questions.
Did the invoices create they just didn't email out?
Did they email but throw an error on the homepage?
Usually we find its a simple setup issue in the recurring template.
Can you post a picture of a setup of one of the templates please?
The templates are setup to send on the 1st of each month. When I looked on February 5th it shows as my previous date being 1/1/2022 and the next date as being 2/1/2022 -> 4 days previous. I manually sent all the invoices. On March 8th I looked and the invoices all showed as previous date being 2/1/2022 and the next date as being 3/1/2022 even though I was checking on 3/8/2022. Shouldn't a recurring invoice just send out on the date specified? Now after I manually sent the March invoices the Recurring invoices show as Last 2/1/2022 and next 4/1/2022. Whay wouldnt it say 3/1/2022 is the last sent?
What is the proper way to manually send recurring invoices when they don't work automatically?
