    note
    If status notifications are enabled by the user, then in 24 hours only a single notification email will be sent to the user for each notification type (add, edit, delete, refund, or mark as paid). For example: If you add 2 invoices, and delete one, then only 1 invoice notification will be sent for adding an invoice, and one for deleting an invoice.
