  2. Integrate sales orders/Invoices in ZOHO with Shopify store

    We currently have Shopify as our store. We love the integration between the store and ZOHO inventory. Our issue is with estimates in Books. There is no way to turn an estimate into an order and process it through Shopify for fulfillment.

  3. Need better iphone experience

    The iphone experience is a bit sub-par. Adding/searching/scanning items is not easy. If I have someone in a warehouse I would like to give them an iphone to be able to check inventory and stock and everything else from it. Currently the iphone app is very basic and isnt actually able to be used to do anything. Would like the ability to scan a barcode to check inventory, add to inventory, allow someone to check in packages, etc.

  5. Take low inventory items and convert to a purchase order. This eliminate typing each product by hand

    This can be accomplished by using item groups to seperate items for each manufacture or place you order product.

  6. Order quantity and delivered quantity shown on Packing Slips.

    We often send out partial orders and up until now, we manually create packing slips that for each item not only show the quantity of this shipment, but also the quantity ordered and the quantity that was already shipped. SO, if a customer has ordered 20 laptops and he already received 10, the current delivery package slip of 5 pcs would show "5" (qty), "ordered: 20" and "Delivered 10".

  7. Dynamic Pricing

    In composite Item, there are other Items, which can be Item Groups or only Item.

    Now, my request is, when the items (groups also) , price is updated with a new one, the price for Composite Should also be changed or a question should be asked to change the price with New Price list.

    Additionally, Gold, Silver, Platinum live price fetching and updating the Price List of Item with Calculation.

  8. Allow inventory data to be editable in a sheets view like ZohoCRM

    One of the features I've become a fan of in ZohoCRM is the ability to edit data directly in Zoho Sheets. I realize that this can be dangerous (in any area) when used without caution, but I've personally found it to be very helpful when used with care.

    I'd love to see all aspects of Zoho Inventory adopt similar functionality, controlled of course by a set of suitable user permissions.

    Thanks,
    Bryan

  9. Ability to scan batch numbers from barcodes

    We have barcoded batch numbers on stocks we receive from manufacturers and they are 12 character long alphanumeric sequences. Entering them manually is highly error prone. Hence ability to directly scan them in the batch numbers field (in bills, transfer orders, invoices) is highly desirable.

    Such ability should be extended to the android (when ready and released) and iOS inventory apps as well as the warehouses don't have computers but can be serviced with handheld devices.

  10. Splitting of a batch into sub-batches

    This need is from the wholesale cloth/fabric trading market. Purchase orders are in meters, stocks are received from manufacturers in bales / batches which internally contain roles / sub-batches, and eventually sold to customers as metres (physically aggregate of roles + metres cut from a role to make a whole number). Each bale and constituent role for each product item could have a varying quantity in metres.

    After detailed analysis and mapping exercise of our business process to the way Zoho inventory has structured items, we have found that batching is the ideal way to track our inventory.

    However, we…

  11. Massive import of products: problems and suggestions

    Hello!!

    Our company works with nearly 10,000 items, most of them with the world color, size, capacity, size, among others. Our suppliers present files (csv) with all the necessary data.

    I run into some problems when importing, which I understand, I must do it by Article Groups.

    1) It is not possible to duplicate the "Name of group of articles": in our case this is essential that there are articles that are duplicated in their name but of different characteristics and suppliers. For example, a pencil. Also, when composing the article, in the import, the name consists of the "Article…

  12. cover delivery challan based issuing of material from my inventory to my vendor. Currently the feature is available only at customer end. eg

    I need delivery challan based issuing of material for job work in my production pipeline.

    Currently Zoho Inventory is not allowing me to issue material on delivery challan for various job works or multiple stages of 'Work In Progress'.

    In my clothing production pipeline, raw material is issued to one of multiple production departments at a time and it further goes to another department. Many job work/value addition jobs at taken up by multiple vendors (individuals or company). I need to record this movement out of my inventory.

  13. Can't edit Custom fields in invoices once they are used somewhere

    Zoho books should allow correction or changes in custom fields even if they are used somewhere in some invoices in past.

    Rather which changing it can ask whether you want to update changes in past invoices as well ?

  14. No option or report for batch tracking in zoho! Alas. Useless

    In zoho you cant track movement of a particular batch even with the batch tracking enabled for stock items. Like if you want to query about a particular batch like to whom it was sold !

    This is not possible in zoho, whats the meaning of enabling batch tracking in stock item then ?

    Taking so much pain for whom ?

  15. Reduce Visibility of Inactive Items

    Items in Zoho Inventory cannot be deleted, only marked inactive, once we have created transactions for the items.
    In our business and many more I assume, the list of inactive items keeps on increasing as we keep developing or trading new items each day.
    Ideally, I would have wished to delete the old items which are not in use anymore, but marking them as inactive is a workaround which is fine.
    The only problem is that the inactive items are too much visible everywhere. Below is the feature request I am proposing:
    1) While exporting the items from Zoho, we…

  17. manufacturer api

    Add MANUFACTURER to the API when listing items. Currently, you can only get manufacturer when you get a specific item. When I pull in all of my items into the database I can't get the manufacturer.

    The only way around this is to go to each individual item and pull it. This is a major performance hit for both of us.

  20. Purchase Order Assigned to Account, Deal or Project

    Hi Zoho,

    It would be great if it is possible to assign purchase orders to accounts, deals or projects. We are a manufacturer following the "just-in-time" process and when we order raw materials from suppliers, we would like to keep all those documents under each order which is assigned to a specific account as this gives it greater traceability and helps with aligning everything for work order closeouts by our accounts team. It also makes it easier for us to go back to the account/deal if we need to review at a later date.
    Will you be implementing this?
    regards
