Know when an invoice needs your attention
QuickBooks Online will tell you an invoice is overdue if you go looking. Most owners don't have time to go looking, so late invoices sit for weeks before anyone chases them. CashWatchdog does the looking for you and emails you.
What you get
Every morning, CashWatchdog checks your QuickBooks Online company for invoices that are past their due date and still unpaid. If it finds any it hasn't told you about, you get one email listing each of them:
- the invoice number and customer
- the amount still owed
- the due date and how many days overdue it is
Each invoice is flagged once, the day it goes overdue, and once more at 30 days if it's still unpaid. No daily nagging about the same invoice, and no email at all on days when nothing new went overdue.
Why owners use it
- Know when to act. A new overdue item is a reason to review your existing follow-up plan, not a guarantee that someone will pay.
- Less checking. You get a notification instead of having to open an accounts receivable report every morning.
- Nothing to learn. No dashboard, no reports. Just an email when something needs you.
Is this for your business?
CashWatchdog is designed for businesses that invoice on payment terms but don't check overdue balances daily. If most customers pay at delivery, or you already have a daily A/R routine, the extra alert may not help.
QuickBooks already includes overdue-invoice views and customer reminders. CashWatchdog does not replace them or contact customers. It tells the owner or bookkeeper about newly overdue invoices so they can decide the next step. Compare it with QuickBooks reminders.
QuickBooks access and security
Intuit's consent screen requests broad accounting access; it doesn't offer a narrower permission for this connection. CashWatchdog uses that access only to read invoice and company details needed for alerts. It never creates, changes or sends anything in QuickBooks. How we handle your data. - You connect through Intuit's own sign-in, and can disconnect anytime from your account page or from QuickBooks. - Connection keys are encrypted and can be revoked from the account page or QuickBooks. Alert emails include customer names and balances, which the email provider processes. - We have completed Intuit's required security assessment, but do not yet have a QuickBooks App Store listing or SOC 2 report.
