Zoho Books | Product updates | September 2025
Hello users,
We’ve rolled out new features and enhancements in Zoho Books. From PayNow payment method to applying journal credits to invoices and bills in other locations, explore the updates designed to enhance your bookkeeping experience.
Integrate Zoho Books with EmaraTax for Seamless VAT Filing [UAE Edition & US DC]
Zoho Books now integrates with EmaraTax, the UAE Federal Tax Authority’s official VAT filing portal, allowing businesses to file VAT returns directly from within Zoho Books.
Introducing the Self-Employment Summary Report [UK Edition]
We have introduced the Self-Employment Summary Report for sole traders to simplify self-assessment filing. The report helps organize business income and expenses, providing details needed to complete SA103F or SA103S forms for HMRC. By default, the SA103F format is shown with a drill-down summary of accounts, and it calculates business income, expenses, and net profit or loss.
Introducing PayNow Payment Method
We now support PayNow as a payment method via Stripe integration. PayNow is a Singapore-based payment option that lets your customers pay in SGD by scanning a QR code through supported banks and non-bank financial institutions.
Note: This payment method is not supported in the India edition of Zoho Books.
Apply Journal Credits to Invoices and Bills in Other Locations
You can now apply the journal credits that you create for a customer to the invoices and bills of the customer in other locations of your organization.

Introducing the Picklist Summary Report and Picklist Details Report
We have introduced the Picklist Summary Report and Picklist Details Report to provide clear insights into picklist data. The Summary Report gives a comprehensive overview of all picklists within a selected date range, while the Details Report offers item-level information. Both reports support customizable Show/Hide Columns, advanced filtering, multi-level grouping, export options, and scheduling for easier analysis and reporting.
