Reminder settings are per accounting book. Each business has its own book, so the cadence and channels you set here apply only to the business you’re currently working in.You’ll find this at:
Settings → ERP → Finance → Overdue reminders
(route /settings/erp/finance/invoice-reminders).

What the digest contains
When a digest is sent it summarises every still-collectable, overdue invoice in the book:- How many overdue invoices and the total amount due.
- The oldest overdue age in days.
- An aging breakdown into buckets: 0–30 days, 31–60 days, and 60+ days (count and amount per bucket).
- The top overdue invoices, oldest first.
Turn reminders on or off and set the cadence
About cadence: the system runs a sweep every morning, but your chosen
frequency decides whether this book is actually due. The digest goes out no
more often than the frequency you pick — Daily chases every day; Weekly waits
about a week between sends; Every 2 weeks waits about two weeks; Monthly waits
about four weeks. (Sending the digest manually with Send digest now bypasses
the cadence — see below.)
Channels:
You must leave at least one channel enabled for a digest to be deliverable.
To change these settings
- Open Settings → ERP → Finance → Overdue reminders.
- Confirm the business in the switcher is the book you want to configure.
- Toggle Send overdue reminders, choose How often, and tick the Channels you want.
- Click Save Changes. (Frequency and channel edits are saved together when you click Save — they don’t auto-apply.)

Who receives the digest
Recipients are everyone bound to the finance role for this book — you don’t maintain a recipient list on this screen for the standard digest. If no one is bound to that role, the digest has nowhere to go and won’t send (you’ll see a “no recipients” message if you try Send digest now). The page also shows when the last digest was sent, so you can confirm it’s running.Send the digest now
Click Send digest now to dispatch the digest immediately, without waiting for the next scheduled run. This is handy after a billing push or before a collections meeting. It bypasses both the once-per-day guard and the frequency cadence. If nothing is sent, the button tells you why:📷 Screenshot: “Send digest now” result toast, e.g. “Digest sent for 5 overdue item(s)” — to be added.
Quiet a single invoice (per-invoice controls)
You don’t have to chase every overdue invoice. On the Invoices page (/accounting/invoices), overdue invoices expose two quick actions:
Snoozed invoices drop out of the digest’s overdue set until the snooze period
ends, then reappear automatically if still unpaid. The current button snoozes for
a fixed 7 days.
📷 Screenshot: An overdue invoice row on the Invoices page showing the “Mark followed up” and “Snooze 7 days” hover actions — to be added.
Who can change it
If you can see the settings but the controls are read-only, you have view access
without the finance-configuration permission — the page tells you so. Ask a
finance administrator to grant
accounting:config.
How it runs automatically (for reference)
- A background sweep runs every morning and, for each book with overdue invoices, sends the digest if the book is enabled, due per its cadence, and hasn’t already been sent today.
- A separate overnight job first marks newly-overdue invoices as overdue so they’re included by the time the digest is built.
- A book is only swept if it actually has overdue, collectable, un-snoozed invoices — quiet books generate no noise.
