  1. Item Purchase Information is useless

    What is the point of a "Purchase Cost" in Purchase Information??? This area should show two values to be useful - and should be automatic
    1.) Most Recent Purchase Cost - what you last bought the item for - this would be pulled from the most recent purchase order.
    2.) Average Inventory Cost - this is the FIFO weighted value of the items.

    Both these values help the user understand the average cost, recent cost, future cost, and is VERY HELPFUL in determining how to price an item.
    As I understand the current implementation, the Purchase Cost is simply an…

  2. Integrate to:adress in system mails report

    1. It would be nice to see at least to which contact the automated Mail has been sent to in a colum?

    2. Maybe a link from the report could lead to the issued process (bill/order/sale).

    3. Would'nt it be nice to keep outgoing mails stored (via IMAP maybe) or in ZOHO MAIL?

  3. Create assemblies out of existing products from Shopify

    I use shopify and I've integrated both systems to track the stock of my products. However, I manufacture them, so I'd also like to track he material stock. I've seen the way of creating new item assemblies in zoho inventory, but I've not seen how to create assemblies from an existing product/item from shopify. The idea is to keep track of all materials in zoho inventory and do not upload that info in shopify. I'd like to know if it is possible to do that, and if not, if you would consider it as a future update.

  4. Receiving Mis-packed Shipments

    So, sometimes a vendor sends MORE than what you ordered. (Usually, they mis-count with another SKU, and you have more of one, and less of another.)

    It would be nice to be able to receive over / under and be able to adjust the PO right then... meaning, still close the PO, with the inventory received, and any over/under is automatically booked as inventory adjustment. I will need to do this manually.

  6. Allow purchasing report based on the Reference # so project managers can see what has been ordered, what is here, and what is not.

    We order equipment for the purpose of installation. A purchase manager orders the material and the warehouse receives it. Our project managers are the ones who needs to know what is here and what is not per project ( Reference #? ) I would like the Project Manager to be able to pull a Project Report, showing what has been ordered, what has been received and especially what is not received.

  7. Simplify the way items are added in transactions

    • Try to add humdreds items in a transaction (SO,PO,EST ..) it will take a loong time to do that .

    • imagine you created 100 items in SO and you need to add another one in 2nd position no way to add it directly , you have to create it at the last and then move it to the right position which is not really easy when you have to do the same with many items .

    SUGGESTIONS :
    1 -When adding items with barcode reader , swhich the focus to next item when it's a new item ou implement the…

  8. Search results count

    After performing a search, the total count at the bottom of the results should reflect the searched / filtered results.

    Ideally, the count would also be shown by default and repeated at the top of the page too.

  10. One Shipment one Invoice Invoice for multiples sales order

    I think what I need is quite common in a lot of business.
    I have clients placing order weekely, but he want receive for example this 4 orders in just one time.
    I believe have a posibility to put sales order together in one shipment and 1 invoice will be really good.
    Other situation that it can help, in the first month you miss the delivery of 4 itens and you need to do it next month with client's next order.

  12. Allow and item to be Inventory Tracked, but not sold.

    This will allow for better use of composite items that are raw materials that get converted into finished goods. You don't sell your raw materials so why would they show up on sales orders.

  13. add integration with Google Shopping, Rakuten, NewEgg, Groupon and other marketplaces

    Adding more marketplaces will make Zoho more useful. Otherwise customers will have to use multiple inventory management tools to support various sales channels (not very convenient)

  15. separate item sync from item creation

    I would very much appreciate if when zoho synced with my ebay/amazon, it didnt create new items in my item groups and items, most of my listings are actually composite items and not singular in my inventory tracking

    Maybe include an option to create a list of items available for creation/linking when the program syncs but let me choose what happens

    Im open to suggestions and thanks for reading

  16. Statutory India

    Hi I test drived your product earlier last year around same time and was told that you are trying to fulfill the trade related statutory requirement of indian government. But Till Date you haven't implemented any.
    like for Excise sales by the first and second stage Dealer. Central Sales against 'C', 'E1', 'E2', 'F' form. Stock movement register.

    Even basic needs of Unique Identification Numbers like Serial Number, IMEI number or Vin Number could not be added for managing inventory

  17. Shelf to Sheet Stock Taking

    The main feature on the inventory is Stock Taking which is missing with Zoho. For example, I run restaurant. We take stock every day night after closing. We use Shelf to Sheet Stock taking method. So we count each item on the shelf and enter on the sheet. Inventory is not just billing alone as given here on Zoho.

    If we have 100 items on shelf there should be method to count and enter the items on the app.

    Even when the status of Purchase Order is Partially Received, the purchase order is not allowed to be edited for those unreceived items. We should be able to edit the Items which are not yet received.
