Question

Invoice email has verbiage I don't want

I recently noticed a major change in the format of my emailed invoices (although this change has not affected the emails from one of my clients).  I strongly object to the addition of "Please pay this invoice on time" which I find overly direct and rude.  I have not been able to find a way to remove this verbiage and I will wind up adding a disclaimer in my emails to renounce it.  I have seen QBO threads about similar involuntary additions which apparently cannot be removed (yet, we hope).  Some posts start as far back as Feb. 2025 and I don't see that the QBO issue has been resolved.  I use desktop (even though QB is making it as difficult as possible) and would like this message to go away.  I will not update my client's QBDT in order to avoid this update.  If anyone knows how to remove this language or revert to the prior email format, I would be most grateful to know how to do it.  Thank you!

Hello there, Blue.

 

I understand your concern regarding the the phrase "Please pay this invoice on time" in your emailed invoices, and how it may come across as too direct or unnecessary.

We encourage you to share your thoughts and suggestions with our Product Development Team by submitting feedback in QBDT, as this helps our product engineers understand how you would like the program to function.
