  1. Make Bill Numbers Optional

    It is a requirement for a bill to have a bill number entered - and this is a nuisance because I have to then take the time to enter data that I generally don't need to capture.

    If want to see full details of the bill, I can open the PDF attachment of the original bill that I will have uploaded to Books when creating the bill.

  3. add a page break in estimates and invoices

    I suggest you add the possibility to insert a page break between 2 articles so that we can spread over several pages and avoid having only signature and footer on the last page...

  4. When Saving Invoices/Estimates: Please add option to "Save and Mark as Sent".

    Several of my Customers use their own platforms for invoices and proposals. I always need to create my own invoice/estimate in Zoho. It would be great to skip the extra steps to Mark as Sent.

    1. The alias and description options, like in Tally, are not available
    2. Binary search or part of Item name search is not available. For eg, if the SKU or Item name is ' D.C. motor plug' then if I write motor, plug or dc in search/bill creation then it doesn't show/populate in the field
    3. If I create composite items then it has to be bundled each time, so the option of auto-bundle should be available. More importantly, if I create a bundle or if it will get auto-bundled in the future release then the items used in this bundle should at…

  8. schedule report by salesperson

    Hi,
    1. Automatic scheduling of report should be available at individual level, this will allow us to send payment collection details at fixed time to salesperson.
    2. also invoice of customers who have already paid and balance is zero should not reflect inside report generation.

  9. Integrate with Zenefits Payroll

    Zenefits is an amazing platform that we currently use for hiring/terminations/payroll and vacation. If Zoho Books integrated with Zenefits Payroll we could avoid manual entry of pay runs processed using Zenefits Payroll. Existing integrations are present for Quickbooks Online and Xero.

  10. Allow option for Cash or Accrual Basis when Generating Sales Tax Due

    Our business operates in Cash Basis overall but for Sales Tax several US states require Accrual Basis to be used as it relates to submitting their individual periodic sales tax payments. Zoho Books assumes that because the company is Cash Basis, no other functions can be Accrual Basis and as such does not seem to have an option to remit sales tax on a different basis as the overall company.

  14. In Blueprints & Workflows make recurring an option for a task or action

    Tasks can be "turned" to recurring once they have been created and are in the different modules. There is no place to make tasks or actions that are added to workflows and blueprints recurring. This hinders automation.

  18. While converting estimate to invoice, I want invoice number to be auto-generated to same as estimate number.

    While converting an estimate to invoice, I want invoice number to be auto-generated and it should be same as estimate number.
    Reason - once I have sign off from buyer and procurement team, I convert estimate to invoice. Now, procurement team has dealt with estimate number, while dispatching we need to put invoice.
    Estimate number and invoice number being different creates misunderstanding.

  19. Bank transfer to another account should include all accounts

    When recociling the bank account I would like the option to be able to pick any ledger account, or at least any balance sheet account. If I have liabilities accrued and a standing order paying them monthly I want to be able to post directly to it.
