The first method is very simple and fairly obvious.\u00a0 If you have something on your screen that you want to email to someone just click the <em>Email<\/em> button at the top of the window.\u00a0 The exact placement of the button will vary depending on what version of Peachtree you are using and what screen you are in.\u00a0 But it is usually near the Print button.\u00a0 In some cases you will see a &#8220;Send To&#8221; button.\u00a0 Clicking on it will give you several choices, including email.\u00a0 For things like invoices, statements, or purchase orders, Peachtree will use the email address that you have entered in customer\/vendor maintenance.<\/p>\n<p>2. If you want to produce a batch of invoices or customer statements and want some to be emailed and the rest printed, you can do that too.\u00a0 In <em>Customer Maintenance<\/em>, go to the <em>Sales Info<\/em> tab for each customer and make sure you have set their <em>Batch Deliver Method<\/em> to <em>Paper<\/em> or <em>Email<\/em>. For those that are email, enter their email address on the <em>General<\/em> tab.\u00a0 Now you can print your batch the same way you always have, but Peachtree will know which ones to send to your printer and which ones to attach to emails.<\/p>\n<p>With either method, Peachtree will convert the invoice, report, or whatever you are sending, to a PDF and attach it to an email.\u00a0 Depending on which email program you are using, the email may be placed in your outbox, waiting to be sent, or it might remain open on your screen so that you can edit the email message.\u00a0 Either way, it won&#8217;t actually be sent until you tell your email program to send.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Your email program does need to be MAPI compliant.\u00a0 The major desktop email programs (Outlook, Outlook Express, and Thunderbird) are MAPI complaint.\u00a0 But most email programs that work through your browser, often referred to as web mail, are not.\u00a0 If you are using web mail, you will probably need to set up one of the email programs mentioned above.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stop spending your time stuffing envelopes or faxing reports.
