    • "Send me email notifications when an automated invoice has been paid"

      • When 'On', this setting will send email notifications once a payment request has been paid. Email notifications will only send to the user who set up the Quickbooks Online notifications within Truss.

      • "Send automated invoice emails to customers"

        • When 'On', this setting will send Truss invoice emails to your customers as soon as you create a new invoice for them in QBO.

        • If you use Quickbooks Online email notifications or don't want your clients getting automated payment emails, you may want to toggle this to "Off".

Done! You can now use Automated Receivables with Quickbooks Online invoices or import bills from your Quickbooks Online account and pay them directly in Truss.
