    Hi,

    To show the Profit and Loss statement separately for Domestic and Export you can make use of Reporting tags. You will have to associate corresponding tag to each transaction so that you can generate P and L reports based on the tags associated.

    Regards.

  7. Apply one customer payment to multiple invoices.

    We run a private school and it is very common that balances owed on an invoice need to be converted to a recurring invoice to break their balance down into smaller payments over time. What we would like to be able to do is create a regular invoice stating their overall tuition owed. The create a recurring invoice for the balance owed. When one of our students pays their recurring invoice, I would like to be able to take that payment and also link it to their regular invoice without creating two separate payments.

    Hi,

    An Invoice can be made as recurring invoice in Zoho Books. While creating an invoice, there appears an option called Make recurring, click on that and specify the expiry date and also the repetitive time period. Once they make payment for the invoices, it will be reflected in the Recurring profile.

    Hope this helps.

    Regards

    Hi there,

    While sending a paid invoice, you will be able to choose the email template. We would suggest you to create an email template first and then while sending the invoice choose the email template from the template dropdown in email to screen.

    Hello,

    

We have added the Bank charges field for vendor payments. This bank charge is exclusive of the amount paid to the vendor. 
    As of now this field is not available for the India, UK, KSA and UAE editions as these regions apply a tax for bank charges. 

    Have a great day.

  12. Print the order numbers in the retail template

    We are using Zoho books for a beauty salon. We are utilizing the invoice order number to manage the customers queue but unfortunately it is being printed in the retail invoice template.

    We have to write the order number manually in the invoice receipt.

    It would be great if we can print the order number in the retail template to avoid this manual writing.

    Thank you
