How can I get customers to put signatures on Order Printouts themselves?

Here’s how it works:

1) From an order’s detail page, use the email option icon (see image below).

Note: This option will play out only if the customer has an email address added to the customer details. Learn More

2) An overlay will appear. You can add details/subject as needed. Choose an Order Printout type and template under ‘Send Print Order’. Then hit the ‘Insert’ link.

A ‘signature pad’ must be added to the Order Printout template you are emailing to the customer. Learn More on Customizing Order Printouts.

3) Hit ‘Send Email’ from the bottom of this overlay. Check ‘attach an invoice’ to receive a pdf file when the customer submit the signed invoice. You can also ask the customer for payment and send a copy to yourself.

Tip: Make sure that ‘Invoice Signed By Customer’ is checked in MORE -> My Alerts. Learn More

4) The customer will receive an email alert with a preview of the agreement/invoice, a place to sign, and a button to submit it. Learn More about alerts for customers.signatures

5) Once the customer signs and hits ‘submit’, you’ll receive an email alert of the Invoice signed and the pdf will be available under Documents tab on the relevant order (see images below).

Things you should know!

– If you have enabled multiple payment gateways in Settings → Add Ons → Enable Payments through Credit Card, you can choose the one you prefer via a drop-down menu in the Order Payments’ dialog box as illustrated above.

– We do not support this feature when charging payments via PayPal and Square.

– The system automatically chooses the current date as the payment date if you have opted for CC as your payment method. In the case of other payment methods, the system allows you to select any of the previous dates. This helps you to record data on payments received in the past

– You can also edit the Payment Amount and Payment Method for the orders individually.

Specify amount and payment gateway

– The mass action payment feature allows you to add ‘Comments’ for the selected Orders. You can view these comments in the pricing table of all the charged Orders.

How do I fix the “Duplicate Document Number Error” in EZRentOut?

If you are trying to sync an invoice from EZRentOut to QuickBooks Online, you might come across the following error:

Duplicate Document Number Error

This error occurs because midway the sync, your connection is lost. As a result of this, the invoice is created in QuickBooks but is not linked to EZRentOut yet. Another indicator of this error is the fact that the “QuickBooks Online Synced At” field on the Orders Detail page has no timestamp.

To solve this error, simply delete the invoice from QuickBooks and then sync again with a more stable connection.
