thank you! do you know if there is a way to save those changes to the email statement so it becomes the default for all emailed statements?
Ok.. so now I've created several different email templates. Chose my default template.. but want to use one of the others for one customer without having to make it the default. Is there a way to do this easily when sending the email? Or do I have to go change the default email every time? I cannot find this answer.
Hello JodyJets,
For Statements, the body of the mail is coming from the text in the Messages settings. We're unable to choose other email templates, but you can edit it. Or, paste the one from your compilation when you email one.
Please get back to us here if you need anything else.
Another reason that I am finding QBO is not as automated as I like. I can save email body text in invoices, estimates etc but not in statements, and it is too Americanised in the wording which is annoying when I forget to amend the individual statement.
Thanks for joining this thread, M for TF.
While we're unable to save the body text in statements as mentioned by my colleague in this thread, I'll take note of your feedback. And, pass it along to our Product Team so they can discuss how to add this feature in QuickBooks Online.
For now, you can visit the Product Updates link to learn what's new and coming in QuickBooks.
Should you need anything else, please let me know. I'm always around to answer your concerns.
Hello,
I agree with other users. Please ask the development team to make it possible to change the default wording when sending statements. It's such a basic requirement and the current wording saying Thanks for your business! TWICE!? is annoying.
Thank you.
Is this product bug not fixed yet?

Let me provide some information to shed some light on this feature, customer.
Please know that the body of the mail in the statement is from the default message. Currently, you can only set one default message, but you can still edit this default message manually when you send your statements.
To edit the body message of the email:
Changing the body message won't automatically change the default messages when you send another statement.
If you wish to change or update the default message. Here's how:
Moreover, you can download your sales forms and statements in QuickBooks. This way, you can send your customers a physical copy of it.
