  3. Sub "accounts payable", "accounts receivable"

    My idea is that the system should allow you to create sub-accounts "accounts payable" and "accounts receivable".
    It will be very simple I noticed that the chart of accounts has some accounts as the default one system are "accounts receivable" and "accounts payable" I noticed that these accounts receive values ​​if I the customer to make a sale immediately credit the value credits accounts payable and debits the sale or merchandise.

    if I have several sales to different customers still accumulates every value in accounts receivable, the more certain on the balance sheet have to show the customer's account that…

  6. Purchase requisition

    It will be nice if you can add a feature to create purchase requisition to an specific department in the same company. So for example if a department needs to buy a new computer, then the manager of that department can create a purchase requisition or request to the procurement department and keep track of them. And after it's approved then we can create the Purchase Order to buy the item. Thanks!

  10. Customizable Dashboard

    Please make the dashboard customizable.
    I should be able to create a report, and be able to throw it on to the dashboard for me to see as soon as I enter Books.

    The variable fields should be more easy to choose. E.g. Date Range, Year range.. Graphs that allow Year-on-Year / Month-to-month comparisons between multiple years

  11. Customizable packing slips - attention field, special instruction field

    Invoice & Packing Slip - more customizable

    (1) Attention Field - essential for billing and shipping products attention to the person who placed the order
    (2) Item & Description - not all items on an invoice can be shipped, ie design service, packing charge, etc, so best to make it modifiable on packing slip
    (3) Shipping Address - client might have multiple shipping location, it would be great if this field is modifiable or if we are allow to save multiple address under the same contact

  13. Make reporting tags visible on all SOs, POs, Invoices, and Bills

    As it is, you have to click on Edit for each transaction, and then on the ellipses next to each item, just to make sure every transaction is being reported correctly. You should be able to see if a reporting tag is assigned to an item just by looking at the item table on the transaction.

  14. Send customers Sales Orders via the client portal

    Currently you can send sales invoices and estimates through the Client Portal. Could you make it possible to send Sales Orders through the Portal and give them an acceptance button as with Estimates?

    Client has developed integration through CRM and the ability to generate Sales Orders in CRM to be transferred to Books and if the client had the ability to see and accept through the portal this could make life very easy.

    Thank you

  15. Allow discounts at individual item level and/or at invoice level

    This applies to all item level documents (Estimates, Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, etc).
    In Settings -> Preferences -> General -> Do you give discounts? you can only select one (Radio Button) of the 3 options:
    - I don't give discounts
    - At individual item level
    - At invoice level

    I would like to suggest that a document may have BOTH item level and document level discounts.

  16. Make reporting tags less tedious

    As brilliant as I find the reporting tags feature, its implementation is rather odd. Instead of being limited to associating tags for each line in an invoice or purchase bill, why not also have the option to associate the whole invoice or purchase bill with a reporting tag?

    I'm trying to use reporting tags to generate profit and loss statement per project. All I have to do is create a tag for that project and associate it with purchases and sales for that project. Unfortunately, with the current implementation that's a tedious process.

    Don't get me wrong. I can see…

  18. Extend Availablity of html Template Editor

    Currently the useful (but hidden) html editor for templates can only be used for Estimates and Invoices. I need to be able to create additional templates for Credit Notes and Proforma Invoices (based on a Sales Order).

    This is an urgent requirement for me.

  19. PayFast payment integration

    PayFast.co.za is a South African based payment gateway and we would like to be able to integrate this into Zoho Books as most of our customers make a bank transfer and PayFast.co.za is able to accomodate this feature.

  20. Pro Forma Invoice

    Invoicing software that does not have a facility to generate pro forma invoices is not a proper invoicing software. Pro forma invoicing is a daily part of running a business and all business will one day or another need to issue a pro forma invoice to a non credit customers.
