Formula based deal calculations and Reporting by month
Zoho support. We sign deals based on a resource/s being placed in a job for a certain number of days. Below shows what our sales team have to fill out. What I need to achieve is to create a formula based section that calculates the number of working days by month based on the est start and end date. So ideally the sales person inputs the est start and end date and a formula factors the days of each month in the year that is relevant to the deal period and then populates the days Ie there is 31 days

Tasks in Calendar
First, It's important to get a single dashboard view of all your activities in the calendar format. The only missing thing is getting 'TASKS' listed in the calendar view. Second, a task must have a start, end times and a reminder option. Third, a task might include making calls, attending events etc. and also may include the involvement of more than one contact. The option to link it to multiple modules is a must. I hope Zoho is working on these.

Best Practice for Tracking Brochures Sent to Contacts in Zoho CRM
Hello We have three brochure types that we mail out to customers at their request (we also send them out in bulk direct mail campaigns). A contact might be sent 1, 2 or all 3 brochure types (depending on their requirements) and I want to keep track of which brochures have been sent and on what date.

G Suite VS Office 365
I'm just about to sign up for a paid Zoho standard crm subscription. I use both G Suite and Office 365 in other business's but will purchase a new G Suite or Office 365 subscription for email and link to my Zoho account. I possible lean towards Office 365.

The remote server returned an error: (400) Bad Request.
My application that uses the Zho rest api has been working flawlessly for the last 4 months. But today it started throwing "The remote server returned an error: (400) Bad Request.". My credentials work fine in Postman, and also in my app. My c# app usees HttpWebRequest so I tried using WebRequest, but I got the same result.

Purchase Order: List Price Is used to derive the purchase cost instead of the cost price
When I add a product, with a cost price as 10 and unit price as 15, the purchase order calculation should happen based on cost price which is 10*1 = 10 but at the moment it happens as 15*1 = 15 I have to manually modify this each and every time and is time consuming. Also, for a product that is already added if the unit price is changed, there is no where i will be made aware as the unit price value is not displayed when the product is selected in the product details field of purchase order form.

PhoneBridge & Integration with 2 systems
Hi there, we have a workforce located in different location spanning different countries/continents. As such, we would probably look at a PhoneBridge integration that might suit each location rather than the business as a whole.

WebToLeadForm is creating records in ZOHO intermittently
Hi guys Our website has various forms on it. When a user submits a form their details are added to the leads screen within Zoho. We've recently updated to the Enterprise package. Since then (and it may be a coincidence) some leads from our web forms dont get inserted into Zoho. Theres no pattern, it seems to happen randomly. Has anyone else experienced this? I have a CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT of 30. Perhaps I should increase this? As I say - theres no apparent pattern to which leads dont get inserted

CRM re-build.
Good morning guys, I hope you're going very good. We are a company that have been used ZOHO CRM for 3 years now. It was not built properly, all the employees had access to everything. As an example, a product's name is "Billoboards_masterhead", and all the commercial agents use it, but if there's a new recruit, the new commercial agents creates a new product "billboards" and so on.

Can you force a customer to reschedule a booking?
Hi there, We are playing around with the bookings feature in CRM and I like how customers can schedule meetins with users or a team. One question that we can't seem to find out from the zoho documentation is what is the best way to notify the customer to reschedule a meeting when needed? I know that they can cancel or reschedule from the email that they received when making the booking, but I don't seem to see a similar process from our end. TIA, Matt

Automatically indicating a lead doesn't need a follow up
Greetings everyone! I'm working on a process that would automatically allow a lead to indicate they already bought insurance from someone else by clicking on a link in an email. I've been searching around and haven't found anything here and have tried a couple things but nothing really works the way I want yet.
