How do you enable automatic reminders for overdue invoices?

• A. Enable from Advanced Preferences; set overdue policy.
• B. Settings > Invoices > Reminders; turn on reminders and set schedule.
• C. Manually email reminders for each overdue invoice.
• D. Activate reminders in the Payroll settings.

Answer: (B)

Automatic reminders for overdue invoices are configured in QuickBooks Online using the Reminders feature. The proper path is Settings, then Invoices, then Reminders, where you can turn reminders on and set the schedule. This centralizes how and when reminders are sent, so customers get automated emails based on how overdue the invoice is. You can customize when the first reminder goes out after the due date and how many additional reminders are sent, along with the messaging. Once enabled, the system handles outreach automatically, saving you from manual follow-ups. Other options don’t activate the automation: the Advanced Preferences or Payroll settings don’t control invoice reminders, and manually emailing each overdue invoice isn’t automatic.
