QBDT Pro+ 2023

We have created several templates (invoice emails, statement emails, etc.) but I haven't found where I can modify the email address used as the "sent from". I would like all emails regarding invoices, statements, and the like to be sent from our accounting department email address. Is that possible? Where do I set that as the default?

 

Thanks in advance.
