Reminder sent for invoice already paid

Good morning,

 

This morning MYOB issued an invoice reminder to one customer is respect of an invoice that had been previously paid and the payment correctly credited against that invoice. In fact when clicking on the "invoice details" link within the email reminder the details state that the invoice is paid!!

 

The reminder was sent on the 20th September and the payment was processed on the 5th September. Further there is only two reminders configured, one sent 4 days overdue and one sent 8 days overdue. So this reminder sent now is completely random.

 

My clients are business owners and so this reflects poorly on both MYOB and myself.

 

MYOB please fix this so it doesn't repeat and keep me informed accordingly.

 

Regards

    Hi All,

    Thank you so much for your post and I'm sorry to hear about the issues you've been having. I really appreciate your patience and understanding about this issue, and I do apologize for the delayed response. When you reopen the invoice, you can find the activity history at the bottom of the invoice. This section displays when the invoice was viewed by the customer and the date when the payment was applied. 

    However, if you wanted a more specific idea of what time the payment was applied, that would only be possible if your customer paid you through the online invoices feature, as it will automatically send you an email as soon as the customer has paid the invoice and that will have a payment date.

      that is not what the case is here for us. on the 20th MYOB sent out the message below... its not the rmeinder email but the standard notification when an invoice is sent. however if you look at the bottom picture i marked the payment off as paid on the 07/9.  so why was this sent? this message below doesnt even show up on that invoice as being sent....the client paid us via bank transfer. :manfrustrated:

    I have had the same problem, all reminder settings are off at this stage in my customer settings (although available if required). Causing confusion to customers who have paid and wasting my time replying saying please disregard etc. MYOB please fix
