Missing Badges with integrated Finance module in ZOHO CRM
At all other modules (e.g. e-mails, contacts, activites) you can see a little badge with the number of items which are contained in the respective module. This is not the case after integrating ZOHO Finance. I would like to see at one glance if there are any estimates, sales orders or invoices connected with my companies or contacts. Any plans?

Change statuses of users in our DB from CRM
Hi all, Hope you are well(: I was wondering rather I can control statuses of users in my native system (not the CRM) using Zoho CRM. For example: a user in my system has a status of "Authorized" to conduct actions in my web app - let's say that the user is authorized to trade up to an amount of $1000 within my system - now I want to change his/her status from "Authorized" to "Unauthorized" in the CRM and that it will affect the actual status in the system. 1. Is it possible? (I haven't seen such

Email Integration Best Practices
Is there a document somewhere that details all the different methods of integrating email into Zoho CRM and the pros and cons of each (IMAO, POP etc)? Is there a recommended best practice/method for someone using G Suite? Currently we are set up using IMAP but it's my understanding that using this method is someone leaves and their g suite account gets deleted all the email would also disappear from Zoho. That doesn't seem good :-). However I assume that POP integration may be worse? Any advice is

contact roles / contact entries
On the potentials page, you can select a role for each contact. I had naturally assumed this would update the person's contact details but when you click on their name to view them on the 'contact details' page the role doesn't show up anywhere i.e. it doesn't seem to carry this information across....which means you have to enter the same info manually again under Title...this seems to me to be double entry. Why is this? Is there a fix? I'm a new person to Zoho CRM so appreciate I may not be understanding

API limit
My customer is on Professional Edition and is hitting the API limit of 250 req/org/day for certain API methods. 1) This is a really low limit. Can this be incremented? According to the documentation (API limits doc ), this is the maximum in any paying edition. Aren't there other options? 2) An email message is sent telling you that the max limit is exceeded. However, it is sent out to all users, in our case at least. Is there a way to change this? It is a very bad idea that this is sent out to all

Can I increase my API limit? What happens when I hit it?
I work for a company that runs a lot of services and we are moving towards using exclusively Zoho as our CRM of choice. That in mind, it might become possible the we reach 250 api calls per day when I need each form to check if a user is a member of a particular service by making an API call to their contact record. So my two questions are this: Can I increase my API call per day limit? and What happens when I hit the limit of my API calls? Forever yours, Gabe P.S. Bonus points if someone informs
a MUST-HAVE for small/flat organizations: Layout Type-based data sharing rules
TL;DR zoho's role-based data sharing rules are pointless if you are a very flat or small organization (like mine <15 ppl) - team members wear many hats and own records across multiple record/layout "types" recommendation - add data-sharing rules or permission sets (a la salesforce-style) where data sharing/access is permitted based on a record/layout type in addition to role/hierarchy. here's the use case: Company has 10 employees One founder One VP that manages A, B, & C functions of the business

On invalid input 'Zoho CRM' doesn't return proper status code.
Hi, I am using Zoho CRM v2 API for development. If I try to create a module (Ex- contact) and don't provide a mandatory field in the input json (For contact, it is LastName), in that case, I get 202/Accepted in response code.

Spam through Webforms - Captcha is bypassed

Inserting calls as Open Activities [API 2.0]
We are using the Zoho REST API (2.0) to submit calls to our ZohoCRM instance. All calls are created as closed activities instead of open activities.

The request I'm making looks like: Request: curl "https://www.zohoapis.eu/crm/v2/Calls/" -H "Authorization: Zoho-oauthtoken [redacted]" -d "@call.json" -X POST call.json:

Hi, I am trying to incorporate Zoho CRM to my company, and I have a problem. I will try to explain it: My company has a mail account (i.e info@company.com).

When the first user logs onto ZohoCRM, goes to Configuration, Channels, Email. There, he configures IMAP, with the info@company.com data for account, server, SMTP, etc. From then
