    It's a necessity to have custom template for the receipt.

  2. Print original, duplicate, triplicate & quadruplicate in invoices

    Generally when we print our invoices we take 4 copies. Each copy will have on the header region
    "Original for Buyer" - 1st copy
    "Duplicate for Transporter" - 2nd copy
    "Triplicate for Assessee"- 3rd copy
    Extra -4th Copy

    This is as per our sales tax rules in our state.

    Hi there,

    In Zoho Invoice, you can print 2/3/4/5 copies of the invoice. This enhancement has been rolled out a while back and we are sorry that this space wasn’t updated.

    You can change this preference in Settings > Preferences > General.

    Note: This option is available only to the Zoho Invoice organisations that belong to the Indian edition.

    Regards,
    Reshma

  3. Dollar discount

    Instead of offering a discount percent there should be the option to supply a dollar amount discounted. So instead of 15% off I may just want to give them $10 off.

    Hello everyone,

    We are happy to let you know that in Zoho Invoice, you can apply a flat rate discount at transaction-level for all entities like estimates, invoices etc., This is available in all the editions now.

    To try it out, just make sure you’ve set the discounts to be at “Invoice level” under Settings > Preferences > General.

  4. Detect if clients open emails OR specify SMTP sending server in account

    It would be really usefull to know if the client has receive the invoice, if he opened it, etc.

    Otherwise if we could specify in our settings, the smtp server to use to send the emails (ex.: Mandrill).

  5. pay all invoices in one transaction

    Please allow customers to pay all due invoices in one transaction and apply payments on all selected invoices. I am coming from FreshBooks, and that is an available option. When customer has multiple invoices, clicking pay now gives them an option to combine rest of the outstanding invoices and pay them all at once. Should not have to pay multiple invoices individually. Annoying for customer and the additional fees for us..

  6. Deduct from Retainer before sending Invoice

    What i have noticed, is when i generate and invoice, i have to
    1. Save it first
    2. Deduct the Invoice amount from the Retainer
    3. Then finally send it off to the client

    What would be much more idea.
    1. Invoice is created.
    2. Zoho Checks to see if there is funding in the Retainer account
    3. Just below the invoice, Zoho, shows u how much is in retaner
    4. Zoho, then shows u a [ ] check box, asking you if you would like to deduct the invoice amount from the retainer
    5. Once you click the check…

    Hi there,

    We are happy to let you know that you can download the PDFs of multiple invoices (up to 100) in one shot.

    To do this, select the invoices using the checkbox to the left and choose the “PDF” option on the top.

    In case you wish to download the invoice PDFs that belong to a particular client, you need to filter those invoices using the “Advance search” option (present on the top of your Zoho Invoice screen) and then follow the above steps.

    If you have any questions, you can drop an email to support[at]zohoinvoice[dot]com

    Regards,
    Reshma.

    Hi,

    We would like to inform that the expense receipts (added as attachments while creating the expense) can be associated to the invoices as well. To achieve this :
    - Move to Settings > Preferences > Invoices ;
    - Enable the option “Associate and display expense receipts in Invoice PDF” and save the preferences.

    Regards,
    Reshma.

    Hi,

    In Zoho Invoice, with the client portal feature, you can know if your client has ‘viewed’ the invoice. Also, in the comments section of that invoice, the date and time at which your client has viewed the invoice would be displayed.

    You can refer the below help documentation page for more insights on the same :
    https://www.zoho.com/invoice/help/client-portal/#notification

    Hope this can help you meet your requirement.

    Cheers !
    Reshma.

  14. Show Foreign Currency Code next to Total on Invoice

    Every overseas client needs to know what currency you are billing them in. (Either your currency, theirs, or another i.e. USD) - so all invoices should display what currency you are invoicing.
    Currently only your Base currency will show next to a total on an invoice.
    Example Total AUD $XXX
    But when you make a new contact for a foreign currency, the currency code does not show next to the total in an invoice, even though the total is saved and sent in the foreign amount.

    Hi there,

    Thanks for your suggestion. Zoho Invoice displays the currency symbol in the total section. In case the transaction is raised in a foreign currency, the system shall automatically display the symbol of that currency. Sorry about the delay in updating this space.

  16. Allow users to set default payment mode

    Ideally default payment mode per client.

    Most of my clients are international and are NEVER going to pay by cash, so why do I have to change the payment mode from 'Cash' to 'Bank Transfer' every single time I receive a payment?

  18. Invoice dates relative to end of the month

    Problem:
    Here in Italy it is (sadly) very common to group payments at the end of the month or, less commonly at a specific day number (say the 20th).
    Nobody pays before the due date and banks want precise dates to give credit.
    We often have to specify dates manually to take that into account and this obviously impacts the recurring invoices too, which we have to edit each time.

    Proposed solution:
    A flag to specify that the effective due date is the last day of the month when terms expire.

    Example:
    invoice issued on 5th october, due 30 days…

    Hi there,

    Zoho Invoice allows you to display the invoice custom fields in the “All invoices” list (or any view, for that matter).

    All you have to do is, choose the ‘Customize columns’ option in the top left of the list and select the custom field you’ve created. I’ve attached a screenshot to show you how to do this.

    If you have any further questions, feel free to reach out to us at support[at]zohoinvoice[dot]com

  20. For the amount in words on the invoice add US Dollar and cents
