Can anyone please point me to where I can alter the message that appears
on the e-mail that carries the sales receipt pdf please. I have checked
everywhere in QB and cannot see anything about it, but of course it is
there because I set this up a year or more ago. Soooo frustrating!

Thanks for your assistance.

Hi there -

I am using Premier 06, and when I am on the Invoice screen and I
choose the Send button on the top, and then Email, a screen with the
email and template pop up. To the right of the screen, there is a
button that says Edit Default Text. When I press that, it tells me I
need to be in Single USer Mode but it looks like it will take me to
edit the text.

Also, make sure you are the administrator too. That always helps when
changing settings. Let me know if that works,

Many thanks for trying to help me. Unfortunately it would appear that
2006 Regular is rather different as I cannot see what you are seeing.

Perhaps I have not made myself clear so I will try again. I complete
an invoice or a sales receipt and want to e-mail it to a customer...fine
it converts it to a pdf and attaches it to an e-mail. Now that e-mail
carries a message which I composed which is used each time. I want to
be able to make a new selectable message or alter the first one I wrote.
I also had the option to alter how it made the greeting it put at the
start of the e-mail. If the invoice was to Fred it would pick up the
word Fred and the greeting could be Dear Fred. Both these features were
available from within QB 2006 Regular but I cannot find any reference to
them in the help files. Perhaps nobody here has used this facility<G>

Thanks if anyone can help me.

OK Guys

From the lack of response I very much doubt if anyone is interested in
knowing the answer<G> However if you are and BTW it is a very useful
facility for anyone sending invoices or sales receipts as pdf email
docs. to customers. Go to preferences-send forms-use the company
preferences tab and do the necessary there.

Hope this helps someone.

Cheers

Hi Richard - I am not sure why it is so different but you can easily
change the text on Premier copy.

What you can do is print it to an Adobe PDF or any free pdf writer
like Cute PDF (instead of QB Email) and then open your own email and
attach it with your own message there. That is what our company does
as we don't like Quickbooks formatting.
