  1. Big Flaw Importing Customers via CSV: only one address field

    Guys, there's a big flaw when importing Customers via CSV. There's only one address field for customer address. Almost everywhere: PayPal, eBay etc etc. there's two lines for the address: i.e.
    Billing address first line
    Billing address second line

    Please add one more map field so that the address could be imported properly as now we have to use "billing attention" as the first line of the address.

  2. Customer ID auto generate

    It would be great if you can add Customer ID / Vendor ID in contacts field which diaplays in Invoices / Estimates / Orders & Payment Vouches.

    This is a real helpful features to track a customer / vendor data easily.

  3. All Customer and Vendor Statement print from single button only

    Our CA asks all the transactions (Statements)Customer wise and Vendor Wise. It is not possible to open each contact and print or download the statement. there should be a single button from where we can print or download statement of all the contact of a specified period.

  5. when I enable the portal for a contact, the possibility to restrict the view to one or more specific projects and not for all items

    As subcontractor, it would be great to allow one or more contacts to see specific project and not all stuffs in the portal. For example we often have projects which involve 2 differents companies and several departments and it would be important to authorise more contacts to have access to specific projects and not to all items.

  6. Import Customers and Vendors from Zoho CRM

    With the recent change to how we view contacts all imported contacts from Zoho CRM are entered in as a customer. We used to be able to tell Books which accounts are customers and which are vendors. We need this ability back not all accounts are customers or we need to be able to tell the sync how to map CRM accounts into customers and vendors.

  8. Allow a contact to be associated with multiple estimates / invoices etc.

    Each contact should be able to view all the estimates / invoices they are associated with, because once they start to be a part of different projects with different clients, we will not be able to have so many email ids for one contact for them to view all estimates / invoices etc. they are associated with.

    So when a contact is associated with many different estimates / invoices etc. he / she will need only one email and login to access the portal and view all associated estimates / invoices etc.

    Alternative on the same lines I suggest the…

  12. create an option to view contacts by last name first, or first name first.

    Since we don't have parent/child options, this would at least allow us to see the members of one family that have the same last name together.

  15. Custom Field Types - Include Image, File Attachment, Text Area

    Sure this would have many uses, though for me one of the biggest would be to enable these additional options within the client portal.

    They could be used for client specific terms and conditions, contracts, designs, allowing much more to be obtained by the client in the portal.

  17. Unique ID for Clients and Vendors

    How about we add a new feature so that we can differentiate between different customers and vendors using there unique ID. We are able to do this somehow using the custom fields but is really not helpful for existing customers.

    So if we add an additional feature that would help us find the customers/vendors using unique ID that would show up in customer portal as well as the contacts to identify that particular user or vendor with different prefixes i.e. a different prefix for a vendor and a different prefix for a customer should add a great value.

    Best Regards,…

  20. block customers

    Give an option to block certain customers. For example make sure that sales can't enter an order for a customer that didn't pay his bills. Now you can put a customer on inactive but if you create an inactive customer as a new contact the system allows it (even if you uncheck the box for allowing duplicate contacts) and the order can be entered anyway without sales knowing that the customer is blocked.
