  3. need to manage raw materials costs, availability and cost of finished products

    For example:

    We Buy raw material (A, B, C, D) to make Finished Product (Z).
    Everytime Finished Good is Same. But the raw material is different.

    1) Z = A+B
    2) Z = C+D
    3) Z = A+B+C
    4) Z - C+D+A
    Like this

  4. Allow the use of existing vendors as carriers within Inventory for shipments

    We use our own carriers as the standard carriers do not ship our kind of product. Our carriers are normal vendors in Books / Inventory, which allows us to use all the billing, payment etc. functions of these apps. However this does not allow us to use the shipping features on the system, as these are for pre-configured carriers only.

    Would it be possible to add the ability perhaps under the "Ship Manually" option to use pre-existing vendors and an email facility for shipment orders? This makes the system much more flexible and would enable users like us to use…

  6. We already definied the Organizations Roles, but, there is a diffence with Zoho CRM where yo can define Hierarchy. We need define hierarchy

    We already definied the Organizations Roles, but, there is a diffence with Zoho CRM where yo can define Hierarchy.

    We need define hierarchy in Zoho Books e Inventory, for ejemple, several seller reports to a manager, each seller can only see their accounts, contacts and potencials, but can not see accounts, contacts the anothers sellers.
    The manager can see their own accounts, contaccts, potencial, and the accounts, contacts and potencial the seller what they depend on.

  14. Distinction between raw material and finished goods and track raw material consumption based on finished goods produced.

    We receive goods in kg and we convert them into smaller packs of numbers. It is difficult to track inventory in this manner. also, we buy packaging material which is primary to our product. whenever we sell these smaller no's pack, we sell them in this primary packaging that we bought (cardboard boxes). But when we make the sale, we only select the main item in invoice and not the cardboard boxes and thus we cannot track its inventory. How can this be solved?

  17. INVENTORY MOVEMENT REPORT BASED IN PR & PACKAGE

    It is best to have individual inventory movement report based on the PR, packages & sales returns. (Example - if you view a item in the inventory valuation report it will show the accounting stock movement based on the invoices, bills and credit notes. Same report based on the PR, Package & Sales returns as well.)

  18. possibility of selecting several warehouse

    It would be helpful to be able to choose warehouse for each line in sale order or invoice.

    I do not have the possibility of selecting several warehouse on the same invoice or customer order.
    Currently, a default warehouse is selected for all invoice lines, this is not the reality of warehouse management needs

  19. Enable default inventory account for new items

    Having to now select from Finished Goods, Inventory Asset or Work in Progress leaves room for error. It would be good if in the preferences for items we could select a default account and then only change it as necessary. We only track Inventory Assets but have had recent errors in the set up of new items as Finished Goods

  20. Costing & Profit Allocation

    Since all the bills are accounted for in Zoho, it would be easy to automatically show how much it costs to make an item, then manually input margins for various entities such as distributor, retailer and company's to arrive at what the MRP should be. I can give a futuristic SKU for the product I am going to make with a name and tag my bills to that SKU. Even budgeting can be done for deciding how much I can ideally spend to make a product and help me choose raw materials/sourcing accordingly. I am currently doing all of this…
