We'll comment below and update our changelog as these updates are made available. And here's the link to our previous post: Upcoming updates - July 2019

Pin customization in map reports

Applicable to: Zoho Creator 5

It's here! A feature that many of you have been requesting.

Currently, the map report displays all records using the same pin. With this enhancement you'll be able to:
  • Change the icon and color of the default pin
  • Create multiple custom pin styles, which can be applied to records that satisfy a certain criteria

Criteria support for schedules

Applicable to: Zoho Creator 5

Currently, the schedule workflows in your Creator 5 account are executed each time a record is created or edited. 

Once this update is rolled out, you’ll be able to set a criteria and the schedule workflow will be executed only for those records that satisfy said criteria.

Note: You’ll be able to edit schedules and set or modify their criteria at any time.

Is it possible to assign more than one vendor to the same product? I saw this same question in this forum, from some time ago. Is this feature available or, at least, in Zoho's roadmap? If not, is there any trick to solve my problem? Without this feature, I simply cannot manage my company's inventory, limiting very much the use of Zoho CRM. Waiting for your reply.

                                                                                                            How do you add a new credit card to a contact with Zoho API as can be done on web.  I am not able to find way to do this with Books API, CRM API or Subscriptions API.  This is an issue for our company as we do migration from a different system.  I can add card to a subscription through Subscriptions API, but some of our customers may not have a subscription, but only invoices set up in Zoho Books.  Is there any way in Zoho API to add new credit card to contact/customer?
