    Are you using Reckon Accounts Hosted (which this thread has been created under) OR a desktop based software such as Reckon Accounts Premier, Enterprise etc?

    If you're using a desktop Reckon software, have you setup the email settings in your preferences as yet?

    If i could save the invoice to a pdf or jpeg would be another option but i cannot do this either. how to bill customers?

    If you have a pdf printer software, I use pdf995, you can print the invoice to this and create a pdf file and save on your computer and then email. Tiny pdf is another one, this work around might help until the problem is solved.

    ‘if you need a hand I’m happy to help 0415940843. But someone may have a more direct solution instead of a work around

    You dont need pdf995 Windows 10 has its own pdf generator. If its not preinstalled on your version you can get it from the Microsoft website. Call me any time 0407744914
