This is a really useful and time-saving feature that allows users to send real-time Xero, QuickBooks, and FreshBooks reports by email to multiple clients right from Google Sheets. Flexible settings allow users to choose the list of interests who need to receive an email, create the text of the letter and set up a schedule of report updates and email notifications.
Another reason to use this feature is that work is going to be done even when the user is offline, for example on vacation or leave. Also, flexible schedule settings allow sending reports even at night which is really nice if a client works in a different time zone.
