This way, you can jot down any information that you'd like to save and revisit it later. You can even download the Zoho Notebook mobile app to view your notes on the go. Note that for this to work, the email ID used to log in to both Zoho Books and Zoho Notebook should be the same.

Download Customer Statements With More Than 2500 Transactions
Long-term customers of your business might have several transactions with you in any given period. There are instances when you would need a record of all the transactions of a particular customer. Our latest enhancement will help with such instances.
You can now download customer statements that consist of more than 2500 transactions. The statements can be downloaded in either PDF or XLS formats, and you can view all past downloads and status of ongoing downloads in the details page. You can also choose to password-protect the downloaded files if required. Note that you can view up to 2500 transactions in a statement on the customer's details page, and download statements with up to 25,000 transactions in one go.
To use this feature: Select the date range for which you want to view the statement from a customer's details page. If the statement in your selected date range has more than 2500 transactions, click the Download Statement option.
Feature Enhancements
Prevent Duplicate Values in Custom Fields
You can now create custom fields in which duplicate values cannot be saved. This can help you record unique details pertaining to a customer like their unique tax ID or reservation code. You can also enable this preference in your existing custom fields if required. However, you'll not be able to do this if there are existing duplicate values recorded for the custom field.

Create Tax Group of TDS Rates [Global & Mexico Editions]
You can now create tax groups of TDS rates. Applying a TDS tax group in a transaction will enable you to make multiple TDS deductions. In addition, this also helps you track different TDS rates in different accounts.
To create a TDS group tax: Go to Settings > Taxes under Taxes & Compliance. Click the TDS Rates tab from the left pane. Click TDS Group Tax in the top-right corner.
