Accessing "Developer Edition - Zoho CRM" over CRM API
Hello! Like the title says I want to access the developer edition of the CRM over the API. It that even possible? And if yes, how? The problem is, that I created custom modules and cannot see them when querying the API. I suppose that the CRM API only connects to the production environment. I also could find any specific URLs for the developer edition to access over API, like: production: http://www.zohoapis.eu... developer: https://developer.zohoapis.eu... Thanks in advance!

CRM for B2B AND B2C?
Suppose you have a B2B web design business AND a B2C real estate business. How do you manage them with one CRM? I would imagine that it would get very confusing if you tried to use the same modules for both. The best idea I can come up with is to 2 sets of modules: B2B Leads, Contacts, etc and B2C Leads, Contacts, Etc. Anybody else have an idea on how to do this?
Import, Lookup, & Score
I need to import building permits into CRM in a custom module "Raw Permits", which I have created. There are hundreds of these per week, but only 30 or so are relevant. I am attempting to create a scoring method that creates a 5 star rating system so the ideal permits get a 5 and can easily be filtered. Modules I have created: Raw Permits - all the raw data. Permit Types - a list of all the permit types and a ranking from 0 - 5 Zip Codes - a list of all the zip codes in the relevant area with a
Use CRM Variable in webhook URLtoNotify
I have a CRM variable that I use to set the environment specific portion of the URL. This works great in custom functions, but is there a way to use it in a webhook URL to Notify config? I was hoping for something like using values in an email template, ${General.Orchestrate Environment}. Is my only other option to always use a function instead of a webhook? Thanks
Ability to add contact CRM notes from within Desk
It's nice that from within Zoho Desk we can see CRM information by clicking on the CRM icon. We use the Contact Notes field to provide some basic information about the customer. It would be nice if agents from within Desk could add/edit the customer notes without having to leave the ticket and open the CRM. Is there any way to do this? Here's a screenshot showing the contact note displaying within Zoho Desk, but there is not a way to add a new note or edit the existing note:

Multiple Users and an Event
Hello, I made an event. "Employee 1" is host. Went to the event > Participants > add > user and added/invited "Employee 2". The events now show up on Employee 2's google calendar, but he doesn't show up under invited/going/maybe. It doesn't register in his "events" on zoho - though it does show up on the calendar b/c its on his google calendar. We have teams who work together - it would be nice if they could both be attached (or activity owner) to an event (to be honest the same would be true

Workflows on encrypted fields
I want to workflow that checks whether my bank details fields (which are encryted) are empty or not. Unfortunately, encrypted fields don't seem to appear in workflow rules. I can understand not wanting workflows based on underlying values of an encrypted field, but seems a bit strange to stop verifying whether empty. Has anyone got any ideas on a way to get around this? Is this a feature that anyone else would find useful?
Updating a Task w/Workflow Rules trigger via a Custom Function
I have a function that is trigger by a workflow rule responding to an create/edit of an event. If the event meet the specified criteria, a specific task belonging to the same contact needs to be updated as being completed. When the task is completed manually, a workflow rule is triggered that performs additional actions. I understand that in Zoho CRM, an update to an entity from a workflow rule action does not trigger the workflow rule on the entity that was updated. I've read here in the community

VOIP Integration
I'm hoping someone here has some experience with using VOIP integration with ZOHO and can send a recommendation my way. I'm looking to sign up for a voip service that can integrate with zoho crm. One of the main features I would love to have is the ability to choose from which phone number I want to call a lead from the CRM. Basically one user can cover many different areas and we want to be able to call from a local number.. so is there any service that would allow me to select the outgoing number
Sales Inbox and Email opened incorrect
Zoho you need to fix a major issue When using Sales Inbox and viewing unopened emails IF i click on the email that was sent to the person and is unopened it then shows as opened in sales signals.,. Meaning the opened email i viewed from me to them shows up in sales signal as opened by the recipient when in fact i opened it. Surely this is not the first complaint re this. This needs to be fixed immediately as its a false representation of the feature and service we are promised. The below screen shot

Hi, When converting a lead to potential, we add closing date. But when the potential finally changes to Closed Won, do you think it is necessary for us to change the close date (be it via workflow or manual) as well? Would like to know the thoughts of the community if it's necessary or not.

Blueprint Zoom In/Out and Undo
The Blueprints interface would be greatly improved by adding the ability to zoom in and out (ideally by holding CTRL+Mouse Wheel up or down, which is standard in many apps and/or +/-). Implementing undo (CTRL+Z) for positioning of stages would also be very useful .

The ability to create Role Departments | Assign a Manager | & Assign Tasks to a Manager of a Department
What about the idea of being able to create departments (perhaps this could be linked to the 'Profile' feature) And then being able to assign a user as a Manager of a certain department. And then being able to assign a task to a Manager of a certain department. If that Manager changes, then we can just assign the new user as that Manager and all tasks associated with that Manager's role will also now be assigned to the new user. If the Super Admin wants to remove the department or the manager then
X-axis showing incorrect dates in 'Anomaly Detector' charts in Dashboard

I've created an Anomaly Detector chart with the following settings: This chart displays as: The problem with this chart is that the months on the x-axis are all 1 month behind.

No More Duplicate Leads, Accounts and Contacts Solution
As a Zoho Partner we have always struggled with duplicate leads. For our business, but mostly our customers the definition of an Account/Contact is someone who has done business with you, not someone who just obtains a quote. The need to convert Leads to create quotes, means you're maintaining prospects in multiple modules. Statistics are complicated as Leads are duplicated and often merged, but a Lead and Contact could send multiple Enquiries. We made the decision to change the process and build

Lead nurturing made easier with email marketing automation workflows
Let's face it, there's nothing more hurting than seeing your leads drop out because of ineffective and ill-timed communication.

That's why Zoho CRM integrates with Zoho Campaigns, our in-house email marketing platform. In Zoho Campaigns, we've introduced drag-and-drop workflows to help you completely automate your routine communication and deliver actionable messages to
Zoho CRM Eventbrite Integration
Hi, I'm trying to integrate our Eventbrite account with our Zoho CRM. I have tried two options and neither work quite right and I'm looking for some advice. I am currently using the Zoho CRM Eventbrite integration available via the marketplace. It works well for us but with one flaw. Each time it syncs it updates a contact. Sometimes I have to update the name of a contact (in case someone's partner/mum/friend signs them up for an event with their name but the other's email address) but each time
Read .xlsx file type after upload
Upon uploading an Excel file (.xlsx) to Deal, is it possible for the CRM system to read through the spreadsheet an extract specific data? For example, our order forms are quite complex and require much flexability than simple line items for selected products. Let's suppose that column 'G' in the uploaded spreadsheet is used for recording prices. Each row is a product and may or may not have a price associated with it. Can Zoho CRM read each row and extract the data whenever a value is found in column

How to manage renewals
Hello, I'm wondering if there is a smart solution in the CRM for client renewals management. I'll explain, we are a Saas startup and we have different periods of monthly subscription. For example, 3 month subscription for one customer and 12 month subscription for another. We would like to manage the renewals in a way that we would see in one place the account + renewal date and preferably receive some kind of notification/alert when the time for the renewal will get close. Thank you in advance.
TRANSLATION ISSUES
Hi everyone, Ok... At the very beginning I did the set up of the system in English. But I am French and so do my clients. So i have turned the languages from English to French. All seemed to be ok but still... when I go to the "account" section, scroll down to "create a new invoice"... to export it as a PDF, the PDF invoice is in English while the system is in French...I have spent hours to investigate... All is set in French and the invoice when I export it under PDF is in english. I don't get it.

Deals/Contacts Vs Prospects/Opportunities
The terminology in Zoho CRM is a bit foreign to me. I am generally more familiar with: Lead: Somebody somewhat interested Prospect: Somebody qualified to buy Opportunity: Somebody qualified and interested/ready to buy. Zoho CRM seems to use Deals and Contacts, which completely baffles me... What exactly is a "Deal" and a "Contact" in Zoho CRM supposed to be in terms of where they fit in the sales funnel?
