Save a Copy of Email Sent From QuickBooks


Welcome to the QuickBooks Minute. I’m Jayne Miller, the QuickBooks Gal.

Until the most recent version of QuickBooks, which finally let us integrate the QuickBooks email function with Microsoft Outlook, one of the biggest frustrations of QuickBooks users who use the email function in QuickBooks has been that once something was sent it was essentially gone.

Until now, there was no way to go back to a "sent" folder and take a look at the notes that had been typed in messages to clients or vendors.

Of course, if you are like some of our clients who don't like using Outlook for email - then you still have this frustration as well.

Unless, you use this great tip:

In your Preferences, go to the "send forms" section.

Click on "Company Preferences," and then add your email address to the "Bcc" field.

This will automatically send a copy of every email you send out of QuickBooks to you, blindly, so that your customers & vendors aren't even aware that you are doing this.


You may even want to set up a specific email address that you use only as your virtual "sent" box if you send a high volume of forms from QuickBooks.

That's today's QuickBooks Gal minute. Please come back for more tips and tricks for QuickBooks users.


I’m Jayne Miller, the QuickBooks Gal. Thanks for listening.

How to "Un" Apply Credits In QuickBooks

Image
Got a QuickBooks Mess? Call The QuickBooks Gal! Welcome to the QuickBooks Minute. I’m Jayne Miller, the QuickBooks Gal Recently, one of our Reno QuickBooks customers asked about "unapplying" credits in QuickBooks. While there are nicely labeled apply credits buttons, there are none marked unapply. This is the case for both customers (invoicing) and vendors (paying bills). So here is how it is done: For customers, it is a fairly easy process. Go to the invoice to which the credit was applied. Then click on the "Apply Credits" button. In the lower half of the new window that pops up is a list of Previously Applied Credits. Simply find the one, or ones you wish to unapply and click on the check mark next to it to make the check mark disappear. The credit will no longer be applied or tied to that invoice. For Vendors, i.e. bill payments, it is not as clean and simple. The only way to unapply a credit in such a case is to Delete the credit. You can then

QuickBooks Password Protection

QuickBooks now requires your employees to enter a password to view their pay stubs when you e-mail them. QuickBooks generates the passwords automatically; each password consists of the first four letters of the employee's last name followed by the last four digits of their Social Security number. Examples Name:                            SSN:                         Pay Stub Password: Ben Narramore              855-56-4545             narr4545 Deb D'Spain                  782-34-3419             dspa3419 Jimmy Wu                     903-88-7465             wu7465 Note that all characters must be entered in lowercase and punctuation characters are not included in the password. When a last name has fewer than four characters, the whole last name is used (like in wu above) but no additional characters are added. You will need to inform each employee of this new password requirement
