  FAQs


How do I change the default email subject and message?

To change the form which is used when emailing, see Set the default forms to use when emailing or printing.

How do I change other email settings?

If you send emails directly from AccountRight, see Set up AccountRight to send emails.

If your emails are sent through Microsoft Outlook, see Sending emails using Microsoft Outlook.

How can I check my email delivery status?

If you send emails directly from AccountRight you can track the email delivery status. If you send emails through Microsoft Outlook, there are features in Outlook which can help track email delivery and receipt. Refer to the help in Outlook for more details.

How can I save statements to disk?

To save statements to disk you'll need third-party software to "print" (save) the statements as PDF documents. Windows 10 has a built-in Print as a PDF option which is available when printing, or you can use a program like Adobe Acrobat or CutePDF to provide the ability to print (save) documents as PDFs.

Once you have the ability to print to PDF, when printing statements in AccountRight and you're prompted to choose a printer, choose the PDF printer from the list of printers. This saves the statements as PDF documents.

How do I include statements for customers with zero balances?

To include statements for customers with zero balances, click Advanced Filters on the Review Statements Before Delivery window and select the option Include Customers with Zero Balances.
