[Vtigercrm-developers] RecurringInvoice Workflow custom function will not send email.

[Brock Poirier]

Hey Prasad,

Unfortunately not. It's quite odd. My custom function will send out email
successfully when an invoice is created manually through the frontend, but
it won't send when an invoice is created via RecurringInvoice workflow. I
feel like I've tried everything at this point.
