How do I import my organization's unique ID for Zoho CRM's opportunities?
I'd greatly appreciate help with this problem, which is causing quite a mess for us. When I import opportunities into my Zoho CRM account, I map the "Opportunities Id" field to a column in an Excel file that lists my organization's own "Project ID" for each of our projects. However, Zoho CRM doesn't recognize this Project ID and instead assigns its own unique ID in the "Opportunities Id" column to each record (e.g. zcrm_818539000000112561). In other words, when I export, none of my organization's

tying "Reports To" field to other records in CRM
Is there a way to allow contacts to be connected via the "reports to" field? I would like to be able to look at a contact and see who they report to and from that field go directly to the manager's contact information. This would theoretically allow an org chart to be created within a specific account.

Integrate Zoho CRM with Website
Hello Everyone, I am new to Zoho CRM and Creator. I have started one project for Pharma company. Currently i have created Lead Module. Also i have integrated with one Web-page, so that Medical Representatives (MRs), can add Lead information through website, rather than login into Zoho CRM. This works fine.

How can I create tasks based on campaign member status?
I must be missing something here, because this seems to be an awfully common requirement. I send out a campaign (using Zoho Campaigns, but I think that's irrelevant to this question) to 1,000 leads. 100 of them respond to it - perhaps by clicking through a link to download a white paper. I want to create a task for each of those 100 respondents to have our sales staff follow-up with them. Right now what I see is that the Campaign Member Status in the Campaigns related list for each of these leads

Workflow/ automation not working with integrations (Zoho Livedesk and Unbounce)
Hi, We have a workflow rule that creates a task (follow up) every time a new lead is created. When we manually create leads or when leads a created via our contact form (from Zoho creator) this rule is executed and it works just fine. But when a new lead is created via Zoho Livedesk OR Unbounce, then the rule is not executed and no task is assigned... How come? /Bo Thygesen

Mail Merge Envelope Formatting
I can set up a mail merge template that is just a #10 envelope and get it working properly and save it. However, once I close it and reopen it the format is changed. In particular, the header and footer are back which need to be removed to make an envelope print properly. And the indents for the address fields are all messed up. I have similar problems with other 8.5 x 11 mail merge document although there it shows up as additional lines being added into the header and footer when save then close

Zoho CRM recurring activity invitees
Hi, I would like to set up a recurring activity and link a number of contacts to it, as I want to schedule my work accordingly. I tried by inviting them to the first instance of the activity and then saving it. But unfortunately, they are not linked to to the recurring appointments. Also, I would like to see the recurring activities that are linked to the contact being displayed when I view the contact record. Is there any way that this can be done? Regards, Robert

Inventory Mgmnt - Product Photo
Why is the Product section doesn't support having a photo, just like adding a photo for a user? I just don't get it, as it is, especially in this day and age, having photo on a product is a must. Might not be a big deal if you're in the service business but for industries or business that carry products, then it is a must have.

Populate address fields on a new contact on existing company
Hi all, New to Zoho and have looked but can's see a solution, so apologies if this has already been covered. I have created some custom fields in address part. I have created a "company" and now am adding some contacts to that company. When I add the contact it adds the company name to the contact but not the address and some of the static data ( company phone and fax ) - I have looked at the field maps and that seems correct. Is this the wrong way to add more contacts ( employee's ) from the same

Systemgenerated emails
Hello - For the past 4 days (5/16) one of our CRM users has been unable to receive reminder emails related to Tasks. We've submitted multiple support requests to Zoho Mail and Zoho CRM as this is the most important feature to this CRM user. We are able to create tasks however no reminder emails are sent (as we schedule them to be). I'm assuming its related to Systemgenerated email system as other emails for this user work OK. We've looked into email storage issues which have been resolved by upgrading
