Been searching online and cannot find an answer. When I invoice in QB and use the Paypal link, is there anyway that the invoice can be a PDF but with a link to PayPal? My boss hates the look of the Outlook invoice with the PayPal link. Doesn’t think it looks very professional.

I installed it in QuickBooks 2010 Pro and it works okay until you exit, which causes QB to hang. I have to close it out with the task manager. I don’t think I want to do that each time.

I downloaded the program but can’t get it to do anything. When I put in the invoice # and review the information as I would to send the e-mail, it just freezes and says not responding. I tried it on 2 different office computers several times. I have Premier 2010 Contractor’s edition.

Have the customer check in her SPAM or junk mail folder…

I downloaded the request for payment in Quickbooks wizard, followed the instructions, and everything seemed fine. The email I sent to my customer even appeared in my sent mail boz. HOWEVER, my customer never received the email. I tried forwarding her the email in my sent mail box without success too. The email itself works — I even tested it — but I still can’t get the request to be sent. Any thoughts?

Thanks, Steve. I hadn’t looked at that lately. Thank goodness PayPal has listened and fixed that problem.

I’m still not a fan of their overall process, unless they have improved that as well.

It appears that whatever issue there was with the zip file has been resolved.

Also, the utility does work with QB 2010 (at least the Premier).

Robert, I don’t have an answer for you. I didn’t particularly care for the way it worked in the first place, so I’ve not pursued it with them. I’m looking at some other PayPal integration products, but I don’t have any thoughts on them yet

I have given up trying to make the Paypal Payment Wizard work in QB 2009 – it worked wonderfully for QB 2005. But no longer seems to work.

Paypal “tech support” (if one calls what they have support) claims it no longer works in QB2009. Is this true or what?

The instructions show that you can customize the amount you want to request your customer to pay….for instance, i ask for a deposit, so it is only half of the invoice the first time. But when i go into set up my invoice to send it has the “amount” section grayed out. Does anyone know how i can fix this? thanks
