I tried to use the endpoint https://accounts.zoho.com/login without success. Is it possible to achieve this? Thanks

Create Leads with associated products through the API
Hello, While creating a lead through the API, we would also like to associate the products related with the lead. We have tried this and it creates the lead but it does not create related products for the lead. I would assume that the bold part below represents the product associated with the lead but this does not work : https://crm.zoho.com/crm/private/xml/Leads/insertRecords?authtoken=someauthtoken&scope=crmapi&xmlData=<Leads> <row no="1"> <FL val="Lead Source">Web Download</FL> <FL val="Company">Your
Display modules when utilized
Is there not a way to display modules when data is inputed and exclude the module when data is not inputed? Here is an example, I have accounts for John Doe and Jane Doe. John Doe has data inputed into a module called criminal history. Jane does not have criminal history, so there is no data. I want John Doe's account to display this criminal history. Jane Doe's account will not display the module, as there is no data in the module for Jane Doe. How can this be accomplished?
Lead Conversion Mapping Aftermath
Hello, I am still playing with Zoho but when my leads were converted to clients, the client's file is now missing their date of birth after the conversion. I fixed the lead conversion mapping so this doesn't happen in the future but i have over 100 clients that do not have their date of birth showing. My question, is there a way to get the 100+ clients to have their date of birth showing again in their converted file? Maybe like some sort of mass update? Thanks in advance.
How to Import Notes for Leads and associate with Email ID
Thank you to Anu from Zoho who went the extra step of researching my problem and providing a resolution! Like so many companies, we participate in many trade shows a year. We use "badge scanners" to track our new leads from the trade shows, making notes on the leads while they are in our booth at the show. This results in a very nice Excel file following the show with all contact info and notes we have taken on our leads. Next step, load them into Zoho and get them to our sales reps. Just one
Why can't an administrator reset the password for a user?
The Forgot password link is useless when the user has never set any security questions. Zoho then insists on answering the question "What is your favourite" Since it is unknown what the favourite thing might be and also this setting is never done by the user, there is no way of giving a correct answer. Administrators should have the permission to REALLY do user management things and not only be able to do minor nobody-cares settings any user could do for him/her self.
Leads to Potential but with existing contact information in Zoho
Our sales flow is setup more based on POTENTIALS (opportunities) than true LEADS (i.e people) so this makes converting LEADS to DEALS tricky without creating duplicate contact information. But we still want to associate the potential with the leads module to track back to campaigns etc. Yep - adding that manually if we create a Potential directly can work, but on a larger scale we need this to start at LEAD cycle. "Hey did you hear some guys are building a mall over there next year ?" Potential Name
Tracking Sent Emails from Zoho Mail Client (Win 10) within Zoho CRM (Lead/Contact record - email history) and vice-versa
I have all related 'send from' emails/aliases and domains verified and validated in both CRM and Zoho Mail. Problem: I send an email from the CRM to a Contact and it tracks it, displaying the email in the Contact email history details, but this does not show in my "sent" folder within the Zoho Mail client (Win10). Likewise, email sent from within the Zoho Mail client (Win10) does not show up in Lead or Contact records under the email history section. Thus Zoho CRM and Zoho Mail are not fully integrated.

Using CRM Java API SDK to insert record into Multi-Select Lookup
I am able to insert records using the Java API SDK except Multi-select Lookup. I know that there is a hidden module associated with the Multi-Select Lookup, in this case "Shopping_X_Members". I am using this code: ZCRMRecord newMember = new ZCRMRecord("Shopping_X_Members"); newMember.setFieldValue("Members_at_Shopping_Participants", participant); newMember.setFieldValue("Members", member); APIResponse zohoNewMember = newMember.create(); where participant or member are either ZCRMRecord or ZCRMEntity
Zoho CRM Unbelievably slow
I absolutely can NOT run a business like this. It takes 2-3 minutes just to LOAD a file. I pay guys to work, and I have NO control over this database. This honestly should not be out of beta testing stages. Very dissappointed that all of my records and contacts are in Zoho. I need to switch to something usable ASAP.
Zoho CRM Task email notification
I just spoke with Zoho CRM support and wanted to confirm the following. Apparently when I schedule a Task for a contact and I set a reminder via email for a later time Zoho CRM will not send an email notification to me. If I schedule an Event this works fine. The tech's answer was that on a New Task email reminder does not work because it's a task and not an event which requires a specific time of occurrence. Can anyone confirm this is how it works??? I just want to be sure I'm not missing any
Data Sharing Rules not working
Hi, I've setup a hierarchy of "Roles" but for few cases need to share lead records across different roles in the hierarchy. For some reason, adding data sharing rules with "From" and "To" as the respective roles has no effect. Still unable to see the "From" account's shared leads in the "To" account. Anyone facing similar issues? Any help appreciated.
Accessing Contact Sales collection via a custom button in the contact module of the CRM
Hi CRM and Deluge gurus, I am trying to create a button for the CRM Contacts module (that shows on the contact list) which reads the Sales Orders collection for the contact, the processes that list to extra all the products and places each product into a muti-pick custom field. My challenge is that I cannot figure out how to grab the Sales Orders collection for the contact record. Any suggestions? Best regards. Joe
Idea for a Custom Function: Auto Calculate Margin on a Quote
Hi, The regular custom function posts are great. It would be great if you could post one that calculates the Margin on an quote, sales order or invoice. It would have to check each item cost and corresponding selling price on the quote and then calculate the margin and adds it to a "Margin" field (while taking into account discount field) This field could then be used within reports to average out Sales Reps profitability. Even better as it would be possible to add to dashboards for live updates.
Calendar synchronisation (Google Calendar)
Hey there, so we run an Event Company and work with a Google Calendar in which our team puts in all prebooked or booked Events. This calendar is called the "Bookings" calendar. My Google Account owns this calendar so i can two way sync CRM with this calendar. Unfortunately the Google Marketplace feature only lets you sync your own calendars so my team can't access this calendar from the CRM directly. Is it possible to include the option to synchronize with shared calendars. We need this fuctionality
Multi-Select Lookup (Linking Module) OR Contact Roles?
I am NOT a Zoho expert by any means, but I'm hoping that someone here might be able to give me guidance on how to approach solving this problem for my business. I have a Zoho CRM Enterprise account with 2 users (very small business) and can't afford to add more users to solve this problem. Here's what I'm trying to do: My company plans very small weddings (elopements) for our customers. The business itself functions very much like a general contractor, where the customer hires my company for planning,
Cost Price and Markup in Quotes functionality
When we do quotes, we want to pull through fields for the cost price of the item, another field that dispays the customer price and a field for markup. Our sales people need to be able to edit the cost price, based on pricing received from suppliers, add a markup to determine the selling price, or manually enter the selling price. ZOHO does not seem capable of this? The quoting module seems like it needs a lot of development. Is there any way to customise this to our specific need, or are we stuck
Ability to add new fields to ZOHO CRM Invoice details
Zoho, a very long time ago I put in a request to find out when ZOHO CRM would be able to have the ENHANCEMENT to allow users to add fields at the INVOICE PRODUCT DETAILS section of invoices in CRM. There are many requests to do this for example follow these links just to name a few; https://help.zoho.com/portal/en/community/topic/quote-quote-details-product-details-customization#2266000004360209 https://help.zoho.com/portal/en/community/topic/adding-column-to-product-details-on-quote https://help.zoho.com/portal/en/community/topic/adding-fields-to-the-product-details
Introducing the Setup page Customization in Zoho CRM
The Setup page in CRM serves as a one-stop place from where you and other members in your organization can access all the features. So, it's important to list out only those features that are required and used more often in daily business practice. Besides, many organizations are compelled to use their applications to perform certain actions and may want the details to be reflected and accessed from within CRM for various reasons. In both the cases, the best approach would be to filter out and display
Tiered Taxes in Quotes
Assume you have 2 items with different taxes as follows: 1. Line Item #1 - Software $100, taxed in two parts (A) 14.5% + (B) 5% = $119.5 (this is default behaviour of ZCRM) 2. Line Item #2 - Hardware $100, taxed in two parts (A) 12.5% = $112.5 + (B) 5% = $118.125 (this is a tiered tax) The second option is not possible in ZCRM. The only way then becomes to split into two quote, hence two sales orders and two invoices where : #1 is achieved simply; AND #2 is achieved by entering tax (A) at line item
Inactive Contacts
Dear admins, When I check in Zoho Campaigns, I see there are 2600 inactive contacts. And Campaign is integrated with CRM, so is there a way to automatically delete them or a particular filter/option that I have to integrate to make sure they don't take unnecessary space. Regards, Naivedya

Companies and Leads
Has anyone found a way to simply attach all leads to a company? I have 44000 leads for 2400 companies I need to assign to 3 reps. Since you cannot tell ZOHO to attach ALL leads to a company and then assign them it looks like you have to enter company in the search area under leads then assign them... HOURS and DAYS of work. With Salesforce this is not the case. You can attach a lead to a company with ease. I am lost on what the thinking is. I have had ZOHO Service team members agree. ( I see you

Workflow rules between two modules
Hello everyone, I have a problem, I want to automatically update the tasks to close them, when a lead is closed. It looks simple, even I'm still a novice. So first, I created an update field for the task to change the status to closed. Second, I created a rule for the lead we lost. But I don't success to link them. In the workflow rules, when I have to choose from the selection list, I can not find the "update field" associated with the task or any other update field related to task. Do you know

Please improve the "NEW" UI popup for creating Quotes / Sales Orders
I'm getting lots of pushback from users on the new UI which is a BIG PROBLEM. The whole CRM is designed to make sales easer yet the key activity in making a sale... "creating the quote" has an extremely poor UI and according to my users even worse since the new updates. To quote one of my reps... "building a quote now is unbelievably tedious with the tiny product preview window". I have reps actually now starting to use Microsoft word to create quotes and send them separately from the system.

Re-think the automation system: Improve Macros and Buttons
I like that there are many ways to automate actions in CRM but, as a relatively new user, it's a bit of a disjointed effort. You can automate some things through this but not through that. Another problem is that the various automation tools are in seemingly random places through the UI. Here are some examples of what I mean: Custom Functions: Function that modify values on a record do not trigger workflows that are watching those fields/records for changes. This should be configurable at the workflow
