Comments
I tried to ask for a payment that was $0.01 and Printavo gave me an error message that the amount was too small. This makes sense, yet I was trying a test and wanted to see if this invoice would sync to QB.
Are there any times when an invoice (other than the status not being checkmarked to sync) that the invoice would not be sync'd to QB? Will it sync before we ask for payment?
Hi Gloria,
A Job will be put in the queue to sync if it is in a status that syncs. That is independent of a payment request. I suggest to include any statuses where money is usually exchanged or any type of work has been performed to ensure that job is synced to your QuickBooks online.
