QuickBooks Estimate
- New (#3217) - if the “Email notification when saving?” checkbox is checked, a special miURL email gets sent to the customer. When the customer clicks this link, they are prompted to enter in their email address as part of the authentication process. Some of the feedback we received suggested that some customers simply don’t want the added step of entering their email address. Of course entering the email address is more secure then logging them directly into their portal account. To help scratch the itch we’ve now updated the estimate screen to take advantage of the single sign in option from within the portal settings.
To enable this, click Customize > Portals and edit the portal (likely the Contacts Portal). Once in the edit screen, check the option for “Enable single-click sign in for emailed links”. (QBD & QBO)
Cheers,
