Zoho Bookings integration with Zoho Invoice guide

Zoho Bookings

Zoho Bookings, at its core, is an online tool your clients can use to book appointments with you. It gives you complete control over managing those scheduled events. Clients will be able to access this information anytime online, choose a required service, choose an available date and time of their choice, and book an appointment with ease. Cancellations and rescheduling of appointments are seamlessly handled; your clients and staff get notified of any changes via automated reminders.

Bookings are powered to expand the payment method of your services so Zoho Invoice is useful for creating invoices. When an appointment is booked at the time, Zoho Invoice generates a new invoice and it can remind your customers to pay by sending invoices to customers' email.
