  3. Show timer in lock screen

    It would be great if once you run the timer in the app, that it shows the timer while in Lock screen on the iPhone. At the moment, you forget if the timer is on or off. need some sort of way to see this quickly or access it while in lock screen.

  5. create an option to view contacts by last name first, or first name first.

    Since we don't have parent/child options, this would at least allow us to see the members of one family that have the same last name together.

  7. Possibility to convert the Estimate in a Sales Order

    I would like to have an option to convert the Estimate first to a Sales Order. And after that to an Invoice.

    Now there is only an option to convert the estimate to an invoice directly

  8. Add ability to edit the CRM data in Books

    Some data is being synced back to CRM but not all. You should be able to edit / update the CRM details for a contact (such as Industry or source).

  9. Support Delayed Charging in zoho books

    whenever an estimate is created , there should be option to "delay charge" . So that when it is converted to invoice and then charge is made until then Amount is in HOLD. Most of the payment gateways support "pay now and charge later". For example , Stripe support "charge/capture" to capture the amount in hold.

  11. We need an additional Contact classification: EMPLOYEE.

    Employees are paid thru Zoho Books, therefore they must be classified as "Vendors" The problem is we cannot not give any employee access to "Vendors", because then they will have access to other employee's payroll data, which is supposed to be confidential information. This is a mayor handicap, since I have employees that must deal with vendors, for quotes (RFQ) and purchases.

  12. Sales reports by state

    I would like to know in which state we are doing better or worse. Another reason is for Sales Tax. Since we have an employee there we have nexus with the state so we have to pay sales tax. We need to have a way to calculate that.

  15. Expense Category in main Bills View

    I think it would be a great idea to be able to see the expense category in the main "Bills" view. Same as it is with the main "Expenses" view.

  17. Profit Analysis by PO#/Job#

    Create a report that will show "all" customer invoices and "all" vendor bills .. with a column for "purchase order#." This simple report will allow users to calculate profit by po#/job#. I've been using QuickBooks for 20 years and this report is one major reason so many companies use QuickBooks.

  18. Hide discount column when not used.

    When discount on item level has been chosen in the preferences a column will appear in the estimate and invoice templates.

    As discounts are not always given it would be great for the column to disapear in the pdf when no discount has been added for any of the products.

  19. mark estimates as invoiced or create invoice from multiple estimates

    I frequently create invoices from multiple estimates. It would be nice to either be able to mark an estimate as "invoiced" manually or be able create an invoice from multiple estimates.

  20. Track multiple sku's of an item

    An item, say SJ PTO 115 may have different versions with different SKU's (due to different sizes, colors etc.) Right now, each of the different SKU's have to be created as different items in Zoho Books. It'd great if different SKU's can be created under the same item.
