  2. Need to have Negative values to enter into the Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable Balances

    This issue occurs when doing the opening values due into the Accounts Receivable. The entering of the Outstanding Opening Balance for the Accounts Receivable does not allow a negative amount to be entered. This can happen when a client pays us up front for his monthly services or even just over pays for a invoice. Please allow negative values ie. the Account Receivable clients has a credit amount - we own the client not what is due to us by the client to us.

  4. Bank Fee Report

    There should be a pre-defined report (listed among the other reports) for Bank Fees. Zoho Invoice has this as a pre-defined report. Now you must request a Custom Report under Accountant > Account Transactions.

  11. Please don't put attachments to the right side of notes or terms and conditions

    Your recent update moves the Attachments options to the right of behind the notes field (bills) or the terms and conditions field (invoices). This makes it hard to see when scrolling down and makes the forms feel awkward. Please put it back to the left side under the notes or terms and conditions, so it is easier to see and when scrolling down and entering information.

  12. Automatic or Manual Accrual of Vendor Invoices to Proper Period

    The whole point of the accrual system is to match income with expenses. A lot of vendors will use an invoice date that is in a period before or after the actual period the expense should be recorded.
    Utilities are worse and usually use the generation date as the invoice date which is usually after the period of the service.

    On the vendor bill screen, a simple "Accrue" checkbox with the corresponding "month to post" should suffice. The bill will then be debited against the expense just like any other bill but the user will have the option to accrue…

  13. Automatic Prepaid Transactions & Reconciliation

    What business does not have to deal with prepaid expenses? Vendors like insurance companies, leasing/licensing companies, & service companies commonly bill in quarterly, semiannual, and annual increments using invoice dates prior to the periods covered. It is a pain to divide the amounts to the periods they apply which usually leads me to record the entire expense in the same period as the invoice.

    The vendor bill creation screen could utilize a special "Prepaid" classification that requests the period start and length for the prepaid expense. The bill will then be debited to the designated "Prepaid" asset account in the…

  14. TAX management in Books

    The possibility to track taxes in 2 separate accounts for inbound / outbound is a nice feature, but it needs to be improved to make it more usable (at least for EU)
    1 - be able to have sub-accounts in the inbound / outbound tax accounts. All EU accountancy uses different VAT accounts for different TAX % + intra EU tax + outside EU TAX which have to be declared differently.
    2 - for the items, it is highly possible that the inbound and outbound tax are different. So a separate field for Purchase tax would be a great addition.

  16. Autocharge Customer on Due Date

    When an invoice is created and the customer has payment method in Zoho books, the system should be able to execute the charge on the due date. As it stands now, I have to remember each customer that prefers to be charged automatically and remember to go back and execute the charge on the due date. And there is not much help from within ZOHO Books to identify this customer or help with a reminder.

  17. Auto share retainer invoice link after estimate is accepted

    The great thing about Zoho is that you can quote customers via a "share estimate link" (a kind of unique public portal) where customers can immediately accept your estimate. And if it is accepted, and automated, your customer will immediately receive an email with an invoice for x% of the quotation.

    At this time, customers must walk away from the estimate to dive into their emails, search for the retainer invoice, think one last time over it and then make the effort to pay it.

    As a golden rule to never let customers walk away from what they want to…

  18. Enable sector profitability reporting using Reporting Tags against items

    I have added reporting tags to specific items to only just learn via chat that only the sales will report for these items and not the associated Cost of Goods Sold for the items sold. This renders the functionality useless for the purposes of Sector profit margin reporting

  19. Ability to Read Emails Sent From Within Zoho Books

    We are able to send via email invoices, estimates and also stand-alone emails from within Zoho Books. However, there is no way to read the content of those emails once they have been sent. As far as I know, they also do not appear under individual Accounts in Zoho CRM. Apparently there is integration with GMail and Outlook Live but I use neither of them. This would be very helpful to review the emails sent here: https://cl.ly/76abcd
