Notifications
Any new financial statement is sent via email to all clients of a project. You won't see a recipients field as by default these are delivered to the clients of the related project.
Note: notifications can still go out for a client that has been placed in a restricted permissions group as this only affects their access, not their ability to receive email
For examples of what this and other client notifications look like please see our related article on Client Notifications.
