  1. Booking of combined tax within a Tax Group

    I have created a Tax Group to combine two different taxes existing in Spain for certain small companies:
    • Value Added Tax, which is a positive tax
    • Withholding Income tax, which is a negative tax
    So, when I create a bill from a supplier who is subject to that tax group, Zoho Books calculates correctly the net amount payable to the supplier. However, both tax types, the positive and the negative, are booked over the same book account, the VAT payable account, which is, accountingwise wrong. Even being calculated from the same tax base, both tax types are conceptually…

  4. Expense Category in main Bills View

    I think it would be a great idea to be able to see the expense category in the main "Bills" view. Same as it is with the main "Expenses" view.
    Thanks

  6. Enable Role where the user can't see transaction done by other users

    I want to enable a user to encode expenses, but without them viewing other transactions done by other users.

    The same limitations is needed in Invoices and other function.

  7. Allow Multiple Attachments for Expenses

    I attach images of the receipts to expenses. Some expenses have different components for the receipts. A simple example is different pages on one receipt where I am storing pictures without the ability to scan. Another would be multiple documents all together. I would like the ability to attach multiple documents to any given expense.

    Same is present in other online accounting software like quickbooks etc

  10. CUSTOM FIELDS for BILLS

    1.   I know I can have custom fields for EXPENSES but is it possible allow this for BILLS? Basically theyre both costs, so its irrelevant if it’s a BILL or EXPENSE.
      
    2.   Also, can you make those fields mandatory?
      

      Thanks a lot

  12. Should be able to enter a refund receipt in Expenses

    Already discussed this on the phone, but just in case.

    When a portion of a receipt, which had been entered in Expenses, and linked to a customer as a billable expense, is refunded, the new refund receipt should be entered in Expenses with a negative amount, again linked to the customer. That way, a pool of expense receipts are billed to a customer as an invoice/part of an invoice at a later date, the difference is accounted for, and there is no room for error.

  13. more than one tax on an expense item

    In my country CC companies and governement tax the international orders different than any other things, i need to enter taxes like in the provided dropbox file:

    https://www.dropbox.com/s/7kuumz367rzr0cd/Screenshot%202015-09-28%2012.26.44.png?dl=0

    3% over the purchased item + 22% over the 3%

    I can´t make this workaround(thankfully provided via zoho support :)) on Expenses, it wil be great if we can add more taxes, or items to be taxed to make a workaround like this one in Expenses

  16. Add date filters to the expense list view

    Go to the Purchases menu and click "Expenses", you will see all your expenses listed. However, what if I want to see all the expenses of June? Or from August 15th to August 31st?

    There's no way to do that as far as I know. It would be nice to add a date picker for filtering the list by date. Shouldn't be a difficult improvement and adds a lot of value.

    Thanks

  17. print associated documents

    of particular importance/relevance in spain where all expenses submitted in tax returns have to be supported by the original invoice issued by the supplier.
    this could be as simple as print all uploaded documents between abc and xyz date, or ideally when running the relevant expenses report you have the option to select to attach documents uploaded for the items included in the report.

  19. Choosing due date for Bills

    Zoho Books offers the feature for choosing due date for Recurring Invoices automatically. It would be great if we had the same feature for Recurring Bills rather than having the bill date as the due date.

  20. Allow VAT value in bills to be set as a figure and not just a percentage value

    We need to be able to define a value for VAT in bills, or override a value, or even create a VAT item that will be 100% VAT and not just set VAT as a percentage of an item as is the only option currently in books. We import products into the EU and therefore receive VAT duty invoices from our shippers where the majority of the value of the invoice is VAT and the figure varies from invoice to invoice and is not associated with the cost of an item.
