Other Use Cases for Liquid’s Email Integration Feature
In addition to using this feature to connect Liquid with your payment platform or accounting software, you can also use Liquid’s email integrations for many other situations. You can use this feature to send copies of all invoices to any email address you choose.
Perhaps you have an accountant or other Accounts Payable (AP) person who should be copied on all invoices. Maybe you need all invoices sent to a separate email address you use for archival purposes. You may want to send all invoices to yourself, possibly so you can forward them to your Wave account. Or perhaps you want to automatically upload your invoices to Box.com or another cloud file storage platform.
There are dozens of use cases for the Liquid Email Integrations feature — be sure to let us know how you are using it!
