All my recurring May 1st invoices didn't send as well. In fact, they weren't even created. Usually they send in the early hours every 1st of the month.

My scheduled transactions were sent more than 12 hours later than usual.  Usually they send early in the morning on the 1st of the month.

Hello there, @Kr2578

 

I'd like to provide an update regarding the timing of your scheduled transactions. 

 

We have changed the timing of when recurring invoices are sent out. While the automatic creation of invoices will still occur between midnight and 2 am PST, the actual sending of the email will not happen until approximately 9 am PST.   

 

This change is automatic, which means you don't need to take any action.

 

For more guidance, you can check out these articles:

 

 

Apart from that, here's an article to help you manage invoice payments inside QBO: Record invoice payments in QuickBooks Online.

 

If there's anything else you'd like to discuss or if you require further assistance beyond managing recurring transactions in QuickBooks, please don't hesitate to let me know.

I am also having an issue as of May 1, 2024 where my recurring transactions do not disappear off the task list after I've received a payment. Has anything been resolved with this issue?

May 6, 2024

I'm here with an update about why recurring transactions still appear on your task list in QuickBooks Online (QBO), MR601.

 

QuickBooks has made changes to the timing of sending notifications for recurring transactions. As a result, they'll continue to appear on your task list even after you have received their payment. Furthermore, this occurrence is automatic, and no action is needed on your end. Rest assured that we'll send further communications about it.

 

Also, would you like to delete an account linked to a recurring transaction? If so, feel free to check out the How to delete an account linked to a recurring transaction section in this article for the step-by-step guide: Review your recurring transactions in QuickBooks Online.

 

If you need further assistance managing your recurring transactions, let me know in the comment section below. I'm always ready to provide the guidance you require.

What the Heck is wrong with Quick Books?  Do they have any real world experience working in a small to medium sized business?  Yes when you get reminded to send and Invoice, Bill, Etc. and then you do that very thing by clicking on the create button and then you do that, then send and save it....you OF COURSE want the Reminder removed and move on to the next month...or Do you think customers of a business want to be double invoiced or worse off double debited?.......what is going on at QB...   What is the explanation here for why this problem exists???

I am also having an issue with my June 1st recurring invoices. It shows my next occurrence is 8/1/2024.

It's nice to see you here in the Community, Shelley4731. I'd be happy to share some details about scheduled recurring invoices in QuickBooks Online.

 

In QuickBooks Online, you have the option to create templates for transactions that occur regularly. If you've set up a template to be sent monthly on the 1st of each month, the July invoices might have already been sent out to your customers. As a result, the next invoice is scheduled for August 1.

 

To adjust the interval settings, you can follow these steps:
 

  1. Head to the gear icon at the top-right corner of the screen.
  2. Under Lists, select Recurring transactions.
  3. Locate the template. Then, click Edit under the Action column.
  4. Make the necessary changes in the interval section.
  5. Press Save template.

 

If you need more information about recurring invoices, feel free to explore these resources:

It's September 23rd, and I still have problems with recurring templates, transactions, and reminders.  I have called 2 times and spent 1 hour and 20 minutes with zero help from first-level support.  These features are critical to keeping overhead count down as a small business.  Any recommendations from the group?

I am using QB Online, I found I neglected to click the Automatically Send Email in the Scheduling settings of the invoices that would not send.  Go into each invoice you want to set to recur and then Manage (Gear at the top), Set to automate in the Scheduled box in the Manage area of the invoice.  Once you set them to Automatically Send then you can set its frequency.

 

You should then see the invoice to be sent in the Recurring Invoices settings as pointed out to in the image in this string.  You can edit the recurring invoices individually in that area if you need to change recipient, service, pricing, etc.

 

You can see if the recurring invoice was actually sent under the far left navigation Sales -> Invoices -> Status

 

It is "intuitive" once you set up a couple.
