Strings and Captcha
Hi guys, This is the first time I write on the Zoho CRM's board. I was noticing on my settings there is feature that if brought to the table might be really interesting to use. 1) Captcha. The captcha we use ask for a numeric digit. I am afraid to lose leads just for a number. So i was thinking, is it possible to use something similar to Google's "i am a human being" to avoid spam from bots who mess the CRM up? 2) String for "Preferred contact". Sometimes i have perplexities about how to reach
Birthday of Child Contacts
Here's my set up. I have an education center for kids. Each family has an account. Each parent is a contact. Each kid is a contact and has the birthdate field filled.

Storage
CRM Enterprise Edition includes 1GB of storage per org + 1GB of storage per user. It also includes unlimited Records. Am I correct in assuming that the storage used by these records doesn't affect the Storage limits? 2nd question: Does anything other than Attachments affect the Storage limits? Thanks!
Events tied to Multiple Potentials
The way our business is structured we sell multiple lines of products to single customers (an engaged customer in our business is on 15-25 distinct "programs"). Because of this we generally have one potential per product line or program. Often we are juggling multiple potentials at the same time but we go to the customer for one meeting to discuss and follow up on a few. I've asked and there isn't a way to tie a single event or meeting to multiple potentials (eg. we go in to discuss office supplies

Need to reset and in migrate zoho crm... help.
Hi. After over a month of trying to get sales data in zoho CRM, I have just been informed that if you have already added *any* data to zoho CRM - eg. you've imported contacts - then the migration tools will not work. They will appear to take the data files - in this case, Sales Orders and Sales Order Details - but will not process them. There is also no import routine for Sales Orders. In short, you get one shot to import your CRM data, and it must be done on a clean installation. So what I've got
Look through our recent feature releases and enhancements

What is the best way to adjust a sales person's revenue for refunds?
Just started using Zoho for our sales team, however we are not yet using it for transactions (that happens in another system.) Currently, in Zoho, we are only tracking sales person's revenue by Closed Deals. Our products come with a 30-day refund period and, if a customer refunds within 30 days, we deduct it from the sales person's total sales for that month (usually the month after the deal was actually sold.) What is the best way to adjust the sales person's revenue in NetSuite without throwing

Function #48: Tracking refunds and adjusting the sales executive's revenue in Zoho CRM
Welcome back everyone! Last week's function was about creating an event from Deals automatically. This week, it's going to be about real-time recording of refunds and sales revenue tracking based on the refunds. Business scenario Having a clear refund policy goes a long way in gaining customer trust. Depending upon the line of business, the refund window might vary. This is even more important in the case of online purchases where customers get to see and feel the product only after making the purchase.

Zoho Mail and Zoho CRM
Using ZOHO mobile version there is no way to see the email associated to a contact or to a lead, this makes ZOHO useless on the move, and this is opposite to the trend in the CRM industry. But also moving from IMAP to POP configuration, as I had to do recently to integrate ZOHO and ZOHO mail , you will lose all the associations between Deals and Emails.... I had 1 year of work spend associating each email sento or received to the related deals and all this job is gone. And I cannot even fix it now

Webhook JSON Post Error
I'm attempting to create a webhook that sends an HTTP request to create a contact using Freshdesk's API (http://developer.freshdesk.com/api/#contacts), which is pretty straightforward. I've been able to create new contacts on Freshdesk with a Ruby script, but I cannot get it to work with the webhook on Zoho. Below are the three issues I'm hoping that I'm politely requesting that someone please walk me through simply, without pointing me to yet another Zoho reference page that doesn't answer my question

searchRecords API not returning all matched results
We have been retrieving a list of all potentials with a stage of "1. To Quote (requested from COPs)" and it has been working perfectly for well over a year.

Has there been any updates to the API recently that might mean we need to change our request string? Regards,

SECURITY Loophole - ZohoCRM Outlook Plugin - Contacts Syncs
There are 2 ways to sync contacts with ZohoCRM, which we use: 1. Office365 integration and 2. Outlook Plugin for Zoho CRM Outlook Plugin offers many additional features for Outlook users (which Office365 integration doesn't) and therefore is very much needed. THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE CONTACTS SYNC OPTION. INFACT A MAJOR SECURITY LOOPHOLE. WITH Outlook Plugin, the end user has the option to sync ALL CONTACTS that he has access to and NOT just the ones owned by him. And there is NO WAY for the admin
Can't run workflow rule on a lead created from a form submission
I have a form created with Zoho Forms on our website. The form when submitted creates a new lead in our CRM with a specific name in our "Lead Source" field.
