  1. Allow recurring purchase orders

    Please allow recurring purchase orders ASAP.

    Quickbooks and your competitors allow this.

    Why?

    In any business where the same people are billing you every month you need to track that they're billing you or enter there reported work: cleaning, tutoring, schools etc. there is huge application for this.

    We'd really like to stay with Zoho but this seems like a major oversight.

    Sincerely,

    Beethoven at Home

  2. Track multiple sku's of an item

    An item, say SJ PTO 115 may have different versions with different SKU's (due to different sizes, colors etc.) Right now, each of the different SKU's have to be created as different items in Zoho Books. It'd great if different SKU's can be created under the same item.

  3. Better Paypal integration

    When paypal feed is integration it only had the customer name, transaction number and amount. Other services like Godaddy bookkeeping transfer customer name, transaction number, amount, and item. When you don't include the item which is sold from through ebay, reverb or amazon it requires you to access those account to figure out what what sold.

  4. Add the PDF to a mail teamplate

    I created an automatic workflow: when a client asks an offer, he gets a mail reminder some days before the offer expires. It's great and very useful but unfortunately there is no way to add the offer in PDF directly to the email template. It would be great if it would work because not every client has an access to the portal and/or understands that he/she has to connect to the portal to see and/or accept/decline the offer.

  5. Invoicing without forced emails

    I just integrated from another online bookkeeping service. Since Zoho Csv function does not match up with paypal, I was forced to enter numerous completed transactions by creating an invoice then paying it. The problem is these are actually completed transactions. When creating an invoice if forces me to input an email so it can send. Please fix this. There is times you want to create, print and invoice without using email.

  6. Custom Field Type - need "look up" eg Contact name

    Want to add a custom field that looks up a preexisting value such as contact name.
    Use case = received a bill that I want to lodge as a cost against a customer (not quite the same as expense) eg the cost of buying a Zoho license for a client so at the end of the year I can have a consolidated report that shows the total revenue from a client less the cost of goods supplied so we get a profit by customer report

  7. Email a supplier invoice straight to Books for processing

    sometimes supplier invoices are received by a named usr instead of being sent to a generic accounts payable address.
    It would be good if the user could forward them by email to a queue in Books ready for coding

  8. Add a weight field. In addition to a description field there should be a way to show the item's weight.

    I would like to have a column that shows the weight of an item sold and a total estimated weight at the bottom of the invoice. Their should be an option to list the weight as you would a part number or item description.

  11. Work better with Yodlee for image security layer

    I contacted Yodlee to ask why my bank's image security layer doesn't work with Zoho and vice versa. They said: "As you are aware currently Gardner Bank account is not supported by Yodlee due to security images for authentication feature at the end site, as of now we don’t have an ETA by when this site will be available. We would request you to contact Zoho Books and file a service request to Yodlee for tracking purpose."

  14. Report for providers

    Hey,
    It would be great if a report existed compiling all the debit and credit by provider (in a profit & loss fashion) - in order to track the monthly expenses by provider.

  15. Recurring Payments which are not expenses such loan principal repayments.

    I need the capability to record recurring payments which are not expenses. Ideally it would come under banking and would be able to record a number of entries for non-expense, expense and tax categories as a single loan/lease/hire purchase repayment often contains a number of different elements, It could thae the form of a Recurring Journal entry facility

  16. Allow .xlsm files to be attached to invoices

    Our company produces fairly complex work statements that rely on macros & scripts to produce final prices. The invoice from Zoho is a simple "final dollar amount" which is described in detail in the work statement which is attached to the invoices. Because of the macros I must save from Excel in the .xlsm format. Zoho allows .xls attachments but prevents attaching .xlsm files. Please remove this filter - it forces me to resave each work statement as a quasi-duplicate file.
