Vendor terms
Settlement discounts as a percentage based on vendor terms.
Lots of vendors offer a % discount if paid within the agreed terms, be nice if Zoho auto deducted this amount automatically if paid on time:-)

This would be so great, but also on the customer side as well. We offer some of our customers terms of a 1 or 2% discount if they pay the total amount within 15 days, but the "actual" due date is within 30 days (written as "2% 15 Net 30"). Likewise, some of our vendors offer the same kind of terms to us as well. Right now, what I've been doing is manually calculating the discount I should be getting, writing a check for the discounted amount, and then creating a vendor credit for the difference. Or for my customers, I wait till I get their check, create a credit memo for the difference, and then apply it to the appropriate invoices before recording the payment. That is pretty tedious and overly complicated for something that is pretty common business practice...
