What's New this April 2019 in Zoho Invoice?

Hello everyone,

It’s a new month and we are excited to bring you the enhancements and updates we made in Zoho Invoice. Let’s take a look at some of them and see how it will help you.

PayTabs Integration (UAE, KSA & Bahrain editions)

If you’re a business owner in the GCC region, collecting payments from your customers just became easier. We’ve integrated with PayTabs, a payment gateway for businesses in the GCC region. You can now collect payments in nearly 168 currencies from anywhere across the world. PayTabs supports credit card and debit card along with the local payment methods such as:

  1. SADAD (Saudi Arabia)
  2. MADA (Saudi Arabia)
  3. KNet (Kuwait)
  4. OmanNet (Oman)
  5. Bahrain Benefit

Note: PayTabs is not yet available in Qatar. 


To integrate your Zoho Invoice organization with PayTabs:
Go to Settings > Integrations > Online Payments > PayTabs > Set up Now.
 

Learn more about  PayTabs .



Custom Scheduler

Are there actions that you do repetitively in Zoho Invoice? Using Custom Schedulers, you can create a custom function and schedule them to perform them at periodic intervals. For example, you want to be notified at the end of the day with the total value of the invoices raised on that particular day. Instead of checking the amount manually, you can configure the custom scheduler to email you the amount every day. This will help you automate tasks and save time. 

To set up a custom scheduler:
Go to Settings > Automation > Custom Scheduler > +New Custom Scheduler.

Learn more about Custom Scheduler.




Search Help Resources

You can now search the help documents and FAQs from within Zoho Invoice and find the answers that you’re looking for contextually.


To search help resources quickly: 
Click the Help icon or Page Tips at the top right corner of the page and type the keyword. 




OAuth for Razorpay Integration

We have implemented Open Authorization (OAuth) for the Razorpay integration. That means you can connect your Razorpay account with Zoho Invoice by entering your Razorpay email address and password. This makes the integration more secure and safe.


Enhancements to Reports

We’ve brought in new enhancements to reports to help you. Here’s everything that’s new:

  1. Filter the Sales by Item report based on customer name.
  2. You can now show or hide GSTIN, GST Treatment and Contact Owner Name columns in reports. (Indian edition)
  3. You can filter reports using the Advanced Filter: Contact Owner Name.


All New Template Gallery

The Template Gallery gets an all new design to help you find the right template quickly. All the templates are grouped based on their type into different categories. Now, finding the right template is easier than before.

To view the revamped template gallery:
Go to Settings > Templates > + New.



Update Payment Terms in Bulk

You can now bulk update payment terms in invoices and recurring invoices. This option enables you to update the due date for multiple invoices and recurring invoices at the same time.

To bulk update payment terms:
Go to Invoices or Recurring Invoices module > select multiple transactions > Bulk Update > update Payment Terms.



Try these features and let us know what you think. Your feedback helps us make Zoho Invoice better for everyone.

 

Cheers,
Lavanya

Preparing and getting estimates approved, collecting payments, and fielding customer requests for information related to past transactions are all part of the day in the life of a business owner. Well, Zoho Invoice can offer some relief to weary business owners.
