QuickBooks Merchant Account/Billing Solutions Customers
We received this ALERT today from Intuit (a contact number is listed at the bottom of this Alert from Intuit-or as always, feel free to contact Tammy or Wanda):
"Please read this important information for users of QuickBooks Billing Solution. You need to know about a situation that could affect you.
In the new release of QuickBooks 2013, some of the controls for managing your QuickBooks Billing Solution settings do not appear. The "Allow Online Payment" and "Mail Later Via QuickBooks" checkboxes on the Create Invoice form are missing. Therefore, when you install QuickBooks 2013, you won't be able to change whether a given invoice can be paid by credit card or IPN bank payment. You also won't be able to mark an invoice to be printed and mailed by the QuickBooks mailing service.
We apologize sincerely for any inconvenience, and we're working hard to correct it. We expect to make a corrected release of QuickBooks 2013 available to you soon. We'll notify you by email as soon as it's ready. Until then, we recommend that you don't use QuickBooks Billing Solution with QuickBooks 2013.
If you have any questions, please contact us at 1-800-268-9065." |
