Wondering how to change the default subject and body content that accompany invoices sent from Novi? When sending a "Smart Invoice" from Novi there are two different types of email templates:

  1. Novi's Smart Invoice default email message

    1. Dues Renewal Invoice: This default message is configured in each Member Type's settings. Learn how to edit Smart Invoice Renewal default messaging. This Smart Invoice type supports merge fields.

    2. All other Smart Invoices: With the exception of Dues Renewal Invoices, all other Smart Invoice email body messaging defaults to your QuickBooks default messaging. This Smart Invoice type does not support merge fields.
      ​

  2. QuickBooks Invoice default email message: If you're using QuickBooks Payments, you'll have an option to send the "QuickBooks Invoice Only" instead of the Smart Invoice. This will trigger QuickBooks to send/re-send the invoice using all of your current settings in QuickBooks.
