How do you delay the sending of an invoice?

Hello. 

I would like to help you in delaying the invoices from being sent. 

Are you trying to delay a recurring invoice from being sent and posted? If that's the case, we'll want to temporarily turn the Automatically send emails option off, or skip the current template from being used and sent. 

For the Automatically send emails option:

1. Click the Gear icon, then select Recurring transactions.
2. Under ACTION, click on Edit on the invoice template.
3. Uncheck the Automatically send emails box.
4. Click Save template.

If you no longer want to delay the invoice from being sent, you'll want to check the box again. 

To skip the current template, click the arrow icon beside Edit. Then, select Skip next date. Select the Use option if you need to send the invoice after delaying it. 

However, are you referring to invoice reminders instead? We can also temporarily turn it off to delay the system from sending it. Here's how to do it: 

1. Click the Gear icon again, then select Account and settings.
2. Go to Sales.
3. Expand the Reminders section.
4. Toggle the Automatic invoice reminders to Off.
5. Hit Save, then Done.

Send the invoice reminders manually when you're ready.
