Does anyone have a solution to error message: Delivery issue (red exclamation point) when sending recurring invoices?

On my invoices dashboard, I get a red exclamation mark icon that invoices need attention.  When I drill into the invoices that need attention, I get individual invoices with red exclamation point icons with the error "delivery issue."  The error goes on to say "Invoice undelivered: We coudln't reach some of your customers.  Double check email address and try again" with a link to resend the invoice.  We have validated multiple times that the email addresses are correct.  From talking with Quickbooks support, sounds like an issue multiple companies are having and there is no current time frame for a solution.  I'm hoping to find a solution or at least be able to track a ticket number to see progress on getting this bug resolved which is a quickbooks issue, not a user issue.  Any details to point me in the right direction are greatly appreciated.

I know it's not easy to deal with these challenges, Dtsc. Allow me to step in and assist you with your concern about the recurring invoice delivery issues in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

 

It's possible that your recipient's email server is temporarily down or blocking emails from Intuit. Kindly ask them to review their server settings and consider adding *.intuit.com and *.intuit.net to their list of trusted sites. I've got some workaround you may consider doing. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to Sales, then Invoices.
  2. In the Status column, you’ll see if the invoice is undelivered or sent.
  3. If you’re in the Invoices tab, you can select the Needs Attention message to see those undelivered invoices. 

 

If this solution doesn't work, you can proceed to Solution 2: Clear and re-enter the email address in this article on how to fix the issue of undelivered customer invoices.

 

If the issue persists, I recommend contacting our Support Team for further assistance, they have more tools on their end.

 

Additionally, explore these resources for tips on recording customer payments and customizing sales forms to enhance business communication:
