Feature Spotlight

Managing your business accounting and banking on separate platforms can be an herculean task. From reconciling bank accounts to making vendor payments, working in silos can reduce your teams productivity and efficiency.

With the Zoho Books connected banking initiative, we aim to bring the world of accounting and banking under one roof. Adding to the long list of banks, we would like to highlight the Zoho Books and HSBC integration.

With this integration you can:

Initiate payments to your vendors
Initiate GST payments directly from Zoho Books
Fetch bank feeds and reconcile transactions effortlessly
View transaction statuses and real-time account balances

Check out our help document and how-to video to learn how to set up this integration for your organization.

What's New

Apply TDS for Invoices, Bills of Supply, and Debit Notes (India edition)

Calculate and apply Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) for your invoices, bills of supply, and debit notes after selecting the TDS section of your choice. You can also choose to edit or delete a particular rate.

If you do not find the TDS section you're looking for, you can create a new TDS section along with the rate by managing TDS. You will also be able to mark your TDS section as a higher TDS after providing a reason.

You can choose to track your TDS payables in your Other Current Liability accounts and your TDS receivables in your Other Current Asset account. If you want to track your TDS receivables and payables in a new account, you can do so by creating a new account in the Chart of Accounts.

To apply TDS:

Go to Sales > Invoices.
Create a new invoice.
Select TDS and select the applicable tax from the dropdown.

Customer Corner

In this edition of Digest, we are thrilled to share the success story of Therapedic Mattress India, a leading company in the mattress industry with over 60 years of experience. Here is what Ashish Mehta, director of the firm, has to say about Zoho Books:

"Our company has multiple branches spread across India. Monitoring the financial activities of all these branches was impossible on Tally and Busy. In 2017, we came across Zoho Books, which helped us view our financial data in real time. With features to handle branches and multiple GSTINs, we were able to maintain the accounts of all our branches in a single organisation. Since the product is intuitive to use and requires no special training, it was easy to switch to Zoho Books."

We're eager to hear and share more stories about businesses using Zoho Books. If you would like to share your story with us, let us know in the comments, and we'll get in touch with you!
