  1. Show tags on main page rather than 'behind the scenes'

    Being a frequent user of Tags, I find it unnecessary to have to go into a sub-screen to allocate the bill/invoice to a reporting tag. I would like to see the reporting tag option in the main input screen for visibility and input efficiency

  2. Enable expenses to be split by Project.

    I do bulk shopping for multiple projects at once. I'd like to enter the expense one time only and be able to allocate the expense (from one receipt) to multiple projects.

  3. include non-billable time on invoices

    Please include an option to include non-billable time entries on invoices. We track all time spend via projects but can't necessarily bill for every 2 minute phone call or task - we would however still like to show our customers that we are spending time on their account, even if it's not billable.

  4. Add Unbilled Expenses to Recurring Invoices

    I almost fell over when I realized this is not in the options. We can set all sorts of ways to have recurring invoices configured but the expenses cannot be added to them. You cannot even manually add them until the invoice is generated and by then the invoice was sent to the client. How did the development team not add this to the options. How has this not been suggested already?

  5. Have a section on the Dashboard for Bill Approvals Pending

    We depend on Books to streamline the approval process for outstanding bills. It would be nice to have the Dashboard show how many bills are waiting for approval and then link to that section.

  6. Reporting tags for expenses

    When running expense reports it would be very useful to be able to attach reporting tags to expenses so that a filter can be applied for expenses that only match that tag. Currently there is no way to filter a set of expenses based on a tag (or something similar) attached to certain expenses.

  7. Leistungsdatum mit Export zu Datev

    Es wird in der Rechnung verlangt, dass das Leistungsdatum oder der Leistungszeitraum angegeben wird. Dieses Feld muss auch an Datev übergeben werden können. Dies ist sehr wichtig, da wir Leistungen des Vormonats abrechnen.

  10. pdf preview in Expense

    Pdf preview in Expense is not available. We generate PDF copies of all expense bills that we receive but since preview is not available for PDFs we are forced to convert PDFs into jpeg format.

  13. Allow Multiple Attachments for Expenses

    I attach images of the receipts to expenses. Some expenses have different components for the receipts. A simple example is different pages on one receipt where I am storing pictures without the ability to scan. Another would be multiple documents all together. I would like the ability to attach multiple documents to any given expense.

  14. customize the header bars in all modules

    I would like to be able to customize the columns in the header bar to the fields that are most meaningful to me, pulling from the fields that are within the specific module.

    For example, if I am working in Bills, I would like the header bar to be customizable so that I can add fields from the Bill that I may need and remove fields from the header that I may not need.

    I think this would be helpful in every module.

  16. Ability to customize dashboard items

    Zoho Expense claims automatically import into the "Employee Reimbursement" account under current liabilities in Zoho Books. Because of this, the outstanding balance payable to my employees does not show up in the "Total Payables" section of the Dashboard. In turn, this inaccurately reflects what is coming in and what has to go out. Being able to customize what is being included in these Dashboard sections would be of great help to reflect what I want to see.

  17. Add "Check to be Printed" on expense entries

    Add a checkbox when making expense entries to be able to print a check for that expense at a later date. Sometimes I need to print checks for expenses without entering a bill. It would be easier to have this option when I make the expense.

    I can then print the "expense" check as I am printing my other bill payments.

  19. Invoice to Bill Integration

    Freshbooks allows users to set up team members that can send invoices which can then be "received" in the system as invoices. These invoices can automatically be turned into expenses. This would save users like me a lot of time. Please consider!
