The tab that shows that the invoices are viewed/how many times viewed and a time stamp of when viewed... is that showing only when the customer clicks and views the invoice or is it also showing when I have viewed the invoice through quickbooks?

From my experience and testing the number of views includes all views by anyone, including your Quickbooks users.

QuickBooks Online has a feature that lets you know if a customer has viewed the emailed invoice, QHVAC. 

 

The Invoice activity section in QuickBooks Online tracks the number of times an invoice is viewed. Please know that viewing or opening invoices within QBO will not count as viewed. Only views done by opening the emailed sales form will appear in the said section.

 

Furthermore, the timestamp includes all views by anyone who receives the invoice, including those added in the CC and BCC fields.

 

Additionally, QBO has functionality that gives you tools to create personalized and professional-looking sales forms. You can refer to this article to learn how: Customize invoices, estimates, and sales receipts in QuickBooks Online.

Is there a way to see specifically who viewed it such as what email address?

The old viewed invoices indicated who viewed it.  Can we have that back?

I understand how essential it is to have the ability to see the invoice, specifically who viewed it, @JDK043024.

 

At this time, the new layout doesn't have an option to see what specific email address has viewed the invoices you have sent in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

 

For now, I'll take note of your feedback to help improve our service. Also, you may personally send this product suggestion to our software engineers to have this feature back in the program. Let me show you how:
