Invoices undelivered won't send to email

Hi there, andrea55.

 

I'll work with you in resolving this issue.

 

We haven't received reports about the undelivered invoices error. Sometimes, this behavior can be caused by a browser hang-up. Let's do some troubleshooting steps to rule this out.

 

Open an incognito or private browser. This mode doesn't save your browsing history, cookies, site data, or information entered in forms.

 

Here are the keyboard shortcuts:

 

  • Google Chrome: Ctrl Shift N
  • Mozilla Firefox: Ctrl Shift P
  • Safari: Command Option P

Then, sign in to your QuickBooks Online account and try to send the invoices. If it's successful, go back to your regular browser and clear its cache. Restart your browser afterwards. Alternatively, try using a different supported browser.

 

Please let me know in the comments below how it goes after trying out the steps. I'm here to help you out again. Stay safe.

Hi RenjolynC.

 

I have already tried using incognito mode already and continue to get this error message for all of the clients I am trying to send invoices to.  I have also cleared my caches and tried both chrome and safari browsers.

Hi RenjolynC.

 

Thank you for looking into this for me.  I have tried to use the incognito mode and continue to get the undeliverable error message.  I have also cleared my caches, and tried both chrome and safari browsers to no avail.

Thank you for following the steps provided above by my colleagues, andrea55. 

 

There are possible reasons why your invoices showing as undelivered. 

 

  • The email address was entered incorrectly 
  • There was a temporary issue with the recipient's email server 

 

This article provides more information on why you may be getting the "undelivered" status: Undelivered Invoices in QuickBooks Online.  

  

However, if the email address entered is correct and no temporary issue with the recipient;s email server. I recommend contacting our Customer Care Team. They can further check what's causing this behavior and might report it to our engineers.

I am also getting undelivered invoices - its nothing to do with wrong e mail address or a temporary problem with the clients e mail - its that QB e mail servers are blacklisted - you have a number apparently and some are blacklisted due to the amount of spam sent.

My IT software guy says one has been released and another later today. 

You guys need to urgently look into this as  we have hundreds of invoices to send out and trhis will not only add a huge amouint of time but affect our cashflow so please GET IT FIXED NOW.

This issue is so frustrating.  I have tried to add myself on the affected users and that is not easy either.  Please get this fixed. I am glad that I am not going crazy and there are other users having the same issue!

It is very frustrating! I have opted for the "add a gmail account" option, and that seems to be working better.
