You can use the Paperless Customer/Vendor Viewer to confirm PDF Exists = Y, and Sent = Y.

If SENT = N then confirm:

  1. Customer or Vendor has an email address in customer (or vendor) record OR that Paperless settings on Customer/Vendor show "use email in data entry" rather than using customer/vendor email address (which could be blank)
  2. and that the Email check box is selected in the Electronic Delivery for Forms window.
