  1. Setup contact

    Currently a contact must be either a Vendor or Supplier. No other choice. There should be "free"contacts that are not tied to particluar currency or sale or purchase. For example, shareholder, employees, counterparties. This will allow much more flexibility when associating transactions.

  2. Transaction input, sales and payables

    A sales invoice need not be only for posting transaction to a revenue account. Sale invoice can be used for posting transaction to an equity account, i.e company sells shares to a shareholder, sales invoice credits equity account, debits receivables.

  3. Benchmarking to Quickbooks

    Quickbooks does many things better and easier than Zoho, but also somethings Zoho does better. If Zoho wants to be the better product Zoho needs to look at the quickbooks functionalities and improve on those functions. In some ways Zoho is clumsy and too flexible. In other things it is briliiant. I use both QB and Zoho. I thought Zoho could be THE solution, but now I see there are instances where I should be using QB.

  5. Apply correct rate table to invoices created from bills

    We use rate tables for our clients. When an invoice is created for a client tagged to a rate table we expect that pricing to be applies. However if we import a vendor bill the rate table price is not applied unless we remove and re-tag the rate table to the invoice. We need to have an option, or prompt, to enforce the rate table pricing and not default to the vendor bill line total.

  9. Sales & Purchases - Should be Customers & Suppliers

    I am not sure why on ZoHo books - Customers are called Sales and Supplieres are called Puchases??? This root is adding 2 extra clicks 100's of times each and every day we use books. We have to click on sales then on customers and the same thing for the suppliers.

    You should replace Sales with Customers - when clicking on customers tab then the tab will open with Estimates, Sales Orders, Packages Invoices etc.

    Can zoho team make this change asap as it will save zoho users hours of work for every user each year????

  10. Bank Feeds - reduce the number of clicks and default to todays date

    It takes 5 clicks to update a bank feed:
    1. Select the account
    2. Select Refresh Feeds or Sync now
    3. Select Date
    4. Pick the date
    5. Click Refresh

    This is very time consuming when you have multiple accounts (I have over 10).

    It would be better if:
    a) There was a quick refresh option on the Banking Overview screen defaulting to todays date - ideally for all bank accounts at once, or next to each account

    b) the date pop-up automatically defaulted to todays date - one can always move it back if required

  11. Disable requirement for a custom subfolder on portals with custom domains

    I find it ridiculous that if I have a custom domain setup with CNAMES (books.zylker.com) that I then have to add ANOTHER folder on top of portal AND it can't be something basic because it needs to be "unique." So now I have the custom URL of
    books.zylker.com/portal/zylker

    We should just be able to do books.zylker/com/portal

    To add insult to injury, you can't do something like books.zylker.com/portal/books because the system says someone else already has that. No, they don't. That was the whole point of setting up a custom domain. The custom URL looks trashy. Sorry.

    Thanks.

  13. Ability to clone transaction from list view (instead of only when viewing the trans form)

    When looking at an expense, bill , or invoice (heck, make it sales order and estimate also) and the select boxes are available, make an option to clone. Immense savings on workflow, eliminate going to a more detailed view of a transaction to clone it.

  17. Estimates & Invoices - SORT EMAIL option

    For Estimate & Invoices in Books, when finalizing an invoice or estimate and preparing to email to a customer the email addresses are all grouped at the bottom of the page, and not sortable. This is a b ig inconvenience when the customer has multiple contacts, as one has to scan the big jumble. The current display shows contact emails from left to right, top to bottom, in order the contact was entered into the zoho. It would be a very nice feature to be able to sort this as a list, alphabetically by first / last name.

    A lack…

  18. Filter Reports Based On Business/Individual

    It's no good having the option assign sales as business & individual if there is way to run reports. We would need to know how much business we are getting through the Individual customers and how much we are getting from business customers.

  20. Improve the GoCardless Integration

    We need a more integrated GoCardless experience in Zoho.
    A few ideas that I've seen implemented on other bookkeeping/finance systems are,
    Multiple mandates per client, Zoho can only have one GC mandate per client, but GC supports multiple.
    Sync a single Zoho Customer to it's GC account. At the moment you only have the option to refresh ALL GC mandates.
    Have a better connection between GoCardless and Zoho than just the company name.
    Have automatic invoice payments from a primary GC mandate.
