Budget function?
Has there been any progress on the development of a budget function in Zoho Books / Invoice? It's impossible to grow/run a business without some kind of budgeting. If I've missed something, apologies, but there seems little point in using Zoho Books without a budgeting function. Otherwise, I'm very impressed with the Zoho apps and the support. Keep up the great work.

Export Zoho Books to another accounting package?
Is an export feature to Quickbooks or Accpac available (or a form that is easily imported by them)? My reasons: 1) my accountant, who prepares my corporate tax return, prefers to work with their own accounting system. If I can convert Zoho books a form that is easily importable into Quickbooks or an Accpac format, this process would be easy. 2) I don't want to keep my data in a proprietary format on the cloud somewhere without a way to easily extract it to a format that can be read my a well established

Merge Items
Is there a work around for merging items? We currently have three names for one item, all have had a transaction associated so there is no deleting (just deactivating, which doesn't really help. It still appears so people are continuing to use it). I also can't assign inventory tracking to items used in past transactions, which I don't understand, this is an important feature moving forward.. It would be nice to merge into one item and be able to track inventory. Let me know if this is possible.

Managing credit cards
Hi, I'm hoping someone on this forum can help me out managing credit card accounts. Transaction are entered as expenses using the credit card account and, as expected, the card balance shows as a negative since this is clearly money I owe them. Once I make a payment, of the full amount owed, I woudl expect the balance to become zero. It doesn't, the negative balance just keeps on increasing even though the payment is reflected correctly in my main operating account. No-one at Zoho seems to understand

VAT on Multiple Expenses
Firstly, might I say I am based in Ireland, and I'm not an accountant, and therefore my understanding of procedures could be somewhat limited. Scenario. An employee pays for items throughout a month, and therefore their claim for expenses includes multiple items - some of the items are VAT deductible (eg, an IT product) and some are not (eg, a client lunch). Discovery The odd thing in ZBooks, is that whilst it seems possible to add a VAT rate to a one-off item of expense, it is not possible to add

New Menu Layout Feedback
I'd really like to see the banking item back on the top of the menu. I'm sure part of it is just because that's what I'm accustomed to. However, for a bookkeeping program, I think there's a logic to having banking be on top. Not a giant issue, but something
Avalara Sales Tax integration - AVATAX
Just wondering if anyone else is having troubles with this integration? Seems as though Avalara changed their billing process, unbeknownst to Zoho, and now ALL transactions are counted by Avalara, not just transactions in a taxable jurisdiction. This caused a huge price adjustment billed to us by Avalara within a month of us signing up. And Avalara is not cheap to begin with! Avalara has been great in waiving that increase, but there seems to be no fix. Zoho is aware of the problem, but slow

Better implementation of Item Category on Invoices and Estimates
