  1. Please add a 'pending order acknowledgement' status for purchase orders so we know they have been received

    Please add a 'pending order acknowledgement' status for purchase orders. You generate a purchase order and request acknowledgement from the supplier. When you receive the acknowledgement you change the status to acknowledged. A report to show generated orders without acknowledgements could then be made highlighting any orders that need chasing up.

  2. Purchase Order Template

    I would like to be able to create a purchase order template. We order the same set of items from our supplier each time we get a new order from our customer. It would be nice to be able to easily start each new order and adjust quantities and ship-to address from a pre-created purchase order template.

  6. Approval of purchase order based on the amount

    It would be very helpful if the approval could be based on the amount of the purchase order so not every purchase has to be approved if it's for a small amount of money

  9. Consolidating multiple sales orders into one purchase order

    It would be extremely useful to consolidate numerous sales orders into one purchase order. As a wholesaler, we take multiple sales orders for the same item from different customers. We then would like to put this forward to the manufacturer as one complete purchase order that lists a grand total of all the items in all variations needed. The manufacturer can then easily see what they need to produce in total and wouldn't have to add up individual sales orders. It would also help and speed up the process of receiving and allocating goods back into inventory and matching up…

  11. Allow more than 10 "ship to" vendors

    I ship many semi-finished pieces to many vendors to complete the assemblies. I send them PO's that will have the next vendor to ship to on them. Why in the world is there a limit of 10 "ship to" addresses for PO's?

  12. Add feature of cancelling service related sales order items which are not to be billed, rather than amending the order.

    The feature of cancelling service order item can help in closing the order. Currently we have to maintain excel sheets to check which orders are completely billed and which are partially billed or not billed.

  15. Please allow other file extensions to be attached to purchase orders.

    When attaching files to purchase order please allow for different file type. My specific file extension is EMB and is not allowed. This is a make or break for me as Zoho is the only accounting app that I have found that allows you to attached files to purchase orders.

  17. Make Bidding information for Auditing purpose

    Like the Sales Order which starts with estimate, I would like to see a sub-module for bidding! Simply, prior to create a PO, we must create PR (Purchasing Request). Create PR, get it approved by a user role, then the PR would be converted to RFQ/RFP (Request for Quotation or Request for Proposal). When the vendors send their quotes, we enter their prices in the comparison sheet which creates one or several POs based on my choice following the lowest price and the best specs (best offer per quoted item).

    This will make my life (and other ZoHo clients as…
