Adding a link to Outside Website to emails

Hi I want to add a link to our "B2B payment site" in our Invoice Emails.

Is this possible?

 

e.g.

To pay after hours – click here

    Hi DJB 


    Yes, you can do so in the custom form for the invoice under Setup>>Customised Forms.

     

    In order to achieve this, you will add a text box and in your text,  add in the full link address to that relevant page. For example www.myob.com.au

    undefined

    So in your case if you wanted to have a link to your B2B payment site,  you would need to have a text box that shows something similar to the following: "To make the payment go to <insert full link to website>" When this is sent to the email recipient it will appear as a hyper link for them to click on.

    For more information into how to add a text box to a customise form please see Help Article: Personalising forms.

      thats so helpful Komal and I've put it into my customed invoice.

      It doesn't show up as a hyperlink though when I email the invoice to myself.

      However, when you click on the website address it does take you there but looks a 

      bit strange.

       

      I've attached the sample.

        Hi DJB 


        It won't appear as if it's a hyperlink but clicking on it will take you to the web address as you mentioned. At this stage, this is the only workaround for adding links to external websites in the forms. We will post an update if this changes in future. 

         

        Feel free to post should you have other queries.
