  1. Clone Estimate from another invoice

    Hi,

    There are cases, where we need to maintain rates exclusive for customers and are repetitive
    There could be an option, where I can clone an old invoice in to a new estimate, so that the rates of the items will be carried without much effort.

    Thanks,
    Sreeni

  3. multi text custom field

    Allow a custom multi line text box under the subject line in estimates.
    This will then allow us to add additional description details for the estimates.

  4. Can We have Accept or Decline Button in the Email Footer itself for Estimates.

    I Agree that Zoho Books is doing a great job when it comes to client satisfaction. But i have seen this in other Accounting Software's. The Option to Accept or Decline an Estimate is placed directly in the Email footer rather than clicking the view Invoice button which directs you to the public portal. The Button that says view Estimate will be replaced 2 Choices Instead, "Accept" or "Decline". When the client clicks accept we get notified via zoho books & when the client Declines, it opens a new tab with the Public Link Portal wherein the client mentions the…

  5. Purchaser Order field for customer to populate when approving estimates

    When a customer reviews an estimate within their portal and they wish to accept they should be prompted to provide a Purchase Order within a specific field as this is the authority number given for the purchase by the customers finance team. This PO should then be pre-populated into both the Sales Order and the Invoice

  6. Composite items components full descriptions should be visible on estimates/invoices

    You should be able to show all of the items within a composite item with their full descriptions, pictures, and details underneath the main composite item. The current text list with only the items name is just not a good solution.

  8. Add Outstanding Receivable from Customer automatically to Estimate or Sales Order Value

    Many businesses run on credit offered for regular customers. However, if user is unaware of outstanding receivable from a customer, then he would miss adding this amount to his estimate/sales order. An automatic workflow would be most helpful if the amount and details of O/s receivables is added to the Estimate amount automatically.

    If automation is not possible, then atleast manual process should be possible !!

    When creating an estimate or Sales Order for an existing customer, the outstanding receivable should be seen on screen so the user can add the amount in the "Adjustment" column.

    The details of the…

  10. Enable larger images to be displayed - Thumbnail is too small

    The image displayed in Estimates is too small for the type of products we sell. Sometimes it's small visible details that differentiate us from our competition. The images should be enabled to be as large vertically, as the description.

  12. Item Warehouse Details in Estimates

    It would be nice to see in Estimates the details of what warehouse the item is at and quantity like you can in Sales Orders and Invoices so that when you are creating Estimate you know what you currently have in stock at your warehouse or if it will have to come from another location.

  13. Attach from cloud option while sending estimates

    While sending estimates to client - attach documents from cloud option is missing we need it as we will be sending multiple estimate on daily basis from different locations. Option of attaching from cloud makes it more easier.
    Another option is giving sub-folder option in documents section.
    Our business scenario is such that for single estimate we would need to attach 3-4 relevant files your customer care team has informed to make use of attach from documents option but that does not work for us as searching documents takes time everytime and there is possibility of errors.
    Kindly consider our…

  14. Request you to include Proforma Invoice under Zoho Books to record advance Payments directly to the customer specific PO.

    Request you to include Proforma Invoice under Zoho Books to record advance Payments directly to the customer specific PO. it is very difficult to make a PI for separate PO's and recording payment against it. it will be great help and save lot of time. the advance payments should be reflected in customers respective PO's and PI's for tracking of payment individually if needed be.

  19. Additional permissions for estimates

    Add additional permissions for estimates which would restrict an estimator to only be able to see estimates they created/their department creates or that they are given access to. This is currently not possible and different parts of our business are segregated, we do not want all estimators seeing every single job in the business.
