Stop all automated sending

The kill switch halts every automated reminder immediately. Payments and reading still work. Only an Admin can engage or release it, and a reason is required.

Open Settings → Reminder Defaults and find Stop all automated sending.

Halt everything

  1. Sign in as Admin.
  2. Enter a reason (required — this is the audit answer if something went wrong).
  3. Press Halt all sending.

Every reminder and automation stops immediately. Payment detection and reading keep working so you can still see money land and review activity.

Resume

  1. Enter a reason to resume.
  2. Press Resume sending.

While halted, the pane shows when it started and the reason. Standard users see status only: Only an Admin can change this.

What this will not do

  • It will not delete invoices or disconnect accounting.
  • It will not hide the sent log — history stays.
  • It is separate from platform-level controls only the PayBlah operator can use.
