  1. Allow advance payments to be recorded as income instead of liability

    In our service business, a project often takes weeks to complete, but labor and other expenses are incurred throughout the project period so we often ask for advance or installment payments. Since a final invoice amount often isn't known until the project is complete, we invoice at the end of the project and receive a final payment for the balance due. Under the current system, the advance payments received are recorded as a liability, but in our case it is actually income for services provided (labor costs, etc.) during the project. The current system imposes accrual based accounting on our…

  2. Consumption/VAT tax option for bank fee option with bulk payment of invoices and bills

    I see that now there is a bank option for recording bulk payments of both bills and invoices. This is an improvement, but since these are expenses, there should be the option (as with other expenses) to apply a consumtion/VAT tax on these bank fees, as in some countries these are taxable expenses.

  5. would like thank you note to be able to be sent when matching customer payments to invoices

    Background - Thank you notes can only be sent while receiving online payments, recording payments offline and accepting payments through client portal.
    But they CANNOT be sent to a customer while matching transactions. This makes matching transaction pointless if one wants to send a thank you note as we do otherwise customers keep asking us if we have received payment. it is also common business courtesy to thank them and inform them that payment has been recevied.

  7. Enable invoice payment through Stripe ACH without client portal

    When I send an invoice to a customer/client, I would like for them to be able to pay the invoice by clicking the "pay now" button on the web version of the invoice without enabling the customer portal. I want the client's experience to be as simple as possible. A portal opens a can of worms with all of the associated complexity and extra information.

  8. Stripe payments to be marked as paid only when Stripe deposits funds,

    Allow Stripe payments to be marked as paid only when Stripe deposits funds, this can be updated manually or by direct bank feed. When reporting on a cash basis, this needs only be reported on when funds are in bank. Perhaps an option of PAID/AWAITING FUNDS, to remove the invoice from overdue

  11. Batch pay bills Via A Check in the Bills section

    There is not a way to Batch pay bills VIA A CHECK. Meaning the option to PRINT a check. The only way to batch pay bills Via a Check is to go to the Vendor List, which is counter intuitive. It should be able to be done right in the bills section. Why isn't "Via a check" an option in the "record payment" screen of Bills?

  17. Making payments as a user of Zoho Books (not just recording them)

    As a user of Zoho Books, I want to pay my bills via the application by setting up my preferred payment methods so that I don't have to go to another application and copy the information of the account I am paying into that. Is it possible?

    I can see that my customers can make payments to me and they are recorded in Zoho Books, and I can see that I can record the payments I make, but can I also make the payments via Zoho Books?

  18. I need E-NACH facility from ICICI Bank implemented on ZohoBooks for payment collection. Please advice.

    I need E-NACH facility from ICICI Bank implemented on ZohoBooks for payment collection. ICICI Bank will be able to activate this for us. But it will be successful only if ZohoBooks triggers the E-NACH collection on the Invoice due dates. Please advice.

  20. Ability to be able to Void a Payment Made

    Quite surprised that there is no option to void a lost cheque or other payment made. It seems that the only option is to delete the original transaction, which doesn't exactly provide a decent audit trail.

    I think there should be an option to reverse all transaction types rather than being forced to delete them to correct invalid entries.
