  4. Please make ability to set common defaults

    Would like ability to set common defaults such as
    1) Ability to set default country when entering contacts, payment information in credit card fields, etc. We only deal with US customers, for example, and need to keep selecting the country each time.

    2) Ability to set default account when receiving payments. It appears it defaults to PETTY CASH... which is probably the least used account by everyone in general (unless you're running a cash register or something)

  5. Allow the ability to link specific payments to default for accounts

    When adding a payment for an invoice allow a payment by cheque to default to undeposited funds instead of petty cash - give the option to select any cash/banking account to be defaulted based on payment type. Same for visa, mc etc.

  6. Report customization

    I can customize a search screen, but cannot print or export it. Adding all the filters now available for a search to the report dialog will enable searching and printing or exporting crucial reports.

  7. in Italy is a widely used method of deferred payment when I create an invoice would be helpful to have the choice of method of deferred pay

    in Italy is a widely used method of deferred payment

    when I create an invoice would be helpful to have the choice of method of deferred payment 30-60-90 days

    it would be useful to have a system that alerts the customer deadlines

    all management systems sold in Italy have this function

  10. deposit feature on invoices needed desperately. Please pay a deposit of 10% by _____ choose date

    You guys need to have this:

    A deposit field that states:

    Please pay a deposit of 10% by _____ choose date

    This should then be calculated by the total amount.

    The Retainer feature is double handling and a very, very basic way of asking for money with little or no details on it like an invoice.

    This is stopping me from signup and changing from freshbooks. !

  12. Recurring invoices that includes unbilled time entries

    As a services business we automatically invoice many of our clients monthly for services and need to track the time of our consultants against these monthly services. We have recurring invoices set up, and we have projects and timesheets set up, but there doesn't seem to be a way to connect them. I don't want to manually create an invoice from each project each month yet there doesn't seem to be an option to create a recurring invoice from a project.

  14. Customize Recurring Invoice Handling Not Default

    Currently there is a setting on how to handle recurring invoices. create, create and send, etc... You set these under company preferences.

    I have 80% of my invoices that should be handled a specific way, but the other 20% a different way. For example, I want the default to be to create the invoices. But for 20% of my recurring invoices, it is OK to email them without being reviewed.

    I would like the ability to specify whether each recurring invoice follows the default, or is handled differently. This way, anything that can automatically be sent will and I only…

  15. sku

    Since Zoho forces the user to create a unique SKU for each item, we should be able to USE that SKU also. It does not show on REPORTS, PO's, INVOICES or anywhere else where it is ABSOLUTELY NEEDED. This is not a wish list item, it's a NECESSITY. If you have more than a dozen or so items, how are you supposed to identify them from invoices, reports or po's????

  16. work order

    We think and need in Work Order Module to manage our work orders.
    Fields like Work Name, Work Detail, Problem / Solution, Start Time, End Time, Asigned to, Due Date, Materials List, Estimate Cost and others like that can be very useful.
    We are working with Some Apps to do our work but the very important think will be Make a Work Order, and when finished Invoice it from the invoice module.

  17. quantity total

    in the Quantity Column of Estimate/Invoice, we should be able to Total Quantity.

    in the present scenario, if we click on Quantity Option, in Total Section of template, it shows Total of "Items" and "Hours" but that does not serves the purpose at all.

    Example: there could 10 items, now quantity of each item is 5 kgs, so total quantity is 50 kgs, which should reflect below Quantity Column.

    it would immensely help.

  18. Users & Roles

    More permissions in Users & Rolls should contain a "Do not show financial details of transactions" - fantastic for us that have staff that have no need to see cost prices of purchase orders, invoice & item values etc, such as warehouse staff & delivery drivers !

  19. bulk transfer banking transactions

    It would be a very convenient option to be able to select multiple transactions from one zoho account, such as undeposited funds or payments recieved to the bank account where the funds are deposited. Having to edit each transaction individually for many transactions takes a lot of time.
