Better sollution for different industries

I suggenst possibility to set custom fields for every account or only to particular industry. Thanks

Formula Field Question
I need to setup a formula cell to do a very simple calculation, but I can't get it to work. Here's what I need to do: Create a formula cell that Will automatically multiply one number with another. Lookup Provider Count ( from Cell in opportunities) Multiply That By a Dollar Amount (From another Cell in opportunities) Here's the formula I get by using the tool in ZOHO CRM. ==${Potentials.Provider Count}*${Potentials.Estimated Unit / Per-provider Amount} I'm new at this, but I'm usually pretty good

Overwritten Leads Not Updating...
I recently exported all of my leads from zoho and then updated them in excel and reuploaded them with the option to overwrite. Everything went smooth and it said that all 3000 leads were updated correctly. The problem is that when I go to my Leads tab and look at "All Open Leads", none of the leads are updated. Even stranger is that if I export my leads from zoho they are updated. Is there some kind of time delay or something? Why are my leads not updating within the zoho UI?
adding sub tabs

There will be a lot of easier to make that in different tabs. Just like in mobile app of Zoho CRM. Why? When there is a lot of tasks there is a mess in first moment.

Line Item Descriptions on Invoices
Is there a way to have a comment or remark field for each line item in an invoice (not including the product name)? We sell custom decals and do not have part numbers for everything so a line item on our invoices may look like this: product name: Decals Line on invoice: Decals - 1 color, 2 inch round soccer ball - 1 - $4.99 ea Rich Calligan

Debugging Web to Lead forms in ASP.NET
Good morning, I'm trying to implement a Zoho Web to Lead form in ASP.NET 4.0. Has anyone accomplished this? When https://crm.zoho.com/crm/WebToLeadForm opens, I simply get a blank page. No error messages, nothing. Here's a snip-it of the core code: <asp:Content ID="Content2" ContentPlaceHolderID="MainContent" Runat="Server"> <asp:HiddenField ID="xnQsjsdp" Value="i8USzv*O5vs$" runat="server" /> <asp:HiddenField ID="xmIwtLD" Value="NG4SH0R7m7dn4wxS4ZbUZc8TG*oHI*WT" runat="server" />
ZOHO CRM User Accounts- Integrated or not?
Hello, My company is looking to upgrade our current ZOHO CRM account to allow for more users, and would like to know if when we add more "users" -is there any way for ALL of the members of our sales team to have their OWN separate accounts (verifying who each of them are as individuals), while still being able to edit/add things within the "sales team community?" IE: 1. John Doe adds in a "new task". 2. Jane Doe then goes into Zoho- can Jane see John's "New Task" and edit it, while still being
Who should own a new record?
I've been working with the Zoho API for a number of months now and believe that this is a basic design flaw that needs to be addressed. I could be wrong, but think that it warrants some discussion. I'm the administrator for my companies Zoho account. I am the only one who has an authentication token. All requests/responses with Zoho use my token. Some questions: 1. When I create a new task on a Lead, who should this task be assigned to? A) The Lead Owner? B) Me (as the owner of the authentication
Where is the START button to log call time?
We have been using the START button extensively and it's not available in the new log a call pop over. Also the popover is so small that it's hard to take notes plus it scrolls within the popover which scrolls within the page. It's not convenient to use. Please enable an option to get back to the full page for tasks and logging calls.

Exported data where field type is "Lookup" results in "zcrm_3098503845083" valued cells
Hi, Whenever I export data (by going to Accounts, clicking on Account Tools, then Export Accounts"), all fields (for example, an account field that is called "Referral Agent") that are lookups are exported as something like "zcrm_3098503845083". That is not exactly helpful, as in Zoho CRM itself I see a name like "John Doe", but when I export the account I see an intelligible internal descriptor for John Doe. Is there some way to change this? I'd like to see "John Doe" in the .csv export, not
Zoho mail integration
I have been evaluating Zoho mail integration and have two main issues that I'd like an update on, please. From what I've read, these issues were all being worked on by Zoho last year but there doesn't look to have been any activity on resolving them recently and it is keeping us from using Zoho mail effectively. Contacts: Contacts in the Zoho mail add-on do not automatically sync with contacts in Zoho CRM. When will this be resolved? It is unrealistic to place the onus on the user to import contacts
2 email addresses on contact, but it only fetches and follows the first email entered
One contact has two email addresses (normally one business and one personal). Shouldn't the contact have all communications to both email addresses included in the contact card information? Is there a setting I've missed? I can actually switch the email addresses (i.e. the first one listed switched with the 2nd one listed), then fetch, and it will fetch the emails to the top email address. Surely there is a way to keep all information for a contact all in the same record!
Create ticcket with sending email to customer

New rules in formating the phone number ?
Hello, I just discovered that you modified your post processing formating of the phone numbers. Since new, there is no way to get the phone number with international format with a + before the country code. When I enter +33 x xx xx xx xx it will be automatically saved as 33 x xx xx xx xx. By editing the single field it displays the + char but once the entire lead display is refreshed, no trace of the +. It has been removed. So once again, you corrupt the integrity of the datas I'm entering into
What do you convert potentials to?
Confusing lifecycle of a deal for Zoho. It starts off as a Lead, then converts to a Potential, and then what? You have to create an Account to create a Potential, but if you lose the deal, you still have an Account set up. Is there not a way to convert a Potential into a Client? Seems like there should be a Client classification to differentiate the Accounts. Perhaps I'm missing something? Please advise.
cannot add a task to a lead
In the leads module, when we try and add a task it doesn't allow us to make the "related to" field "lead". Thus we are unable to make tasks for our leads. Please advise.

Reports within dynamic custom date range
Hi everyone, I would like to create a set of dynamic reports to help our sales people better manage their contacts with leads and accounts. Would it be possible to create a set of report with the following criteria? Leads If status of lead = hot then return report with all leads that has not seen activity for more than 7 days.

Adding Shipping Address information into Account?
Hello, So, I'm trying to help a client insert information into their Zoho application and I've figured out how to insert a Lead and then convert that lead into Potentials, Accounts, and Contacts. The problem, I am having, however, is that I can't figure out how/where to add "Shipping Address" information so that it shows up for a particular Account? My client really wants to have shipping and billing address in there. Based on this documentation: https://www.zoho.com/crm/help/customization/standard-fields.html#Accounts It

Using zoho crm Campaigns for reoccurring conferences
Hello, I am using Zoho CRM and getting used to the Campaigns section. They have a start and end date, but I was wondering if I can "reactivate" the same campaign once a year for reoccurring conferences or do I need to create a new campaign for each year we go to the same conference? Thanks, ~Seb
Keep Open Activities Showing in List View
In contacts / leads etc. the "open activities" field seemingly randomly loads closed. I'm sure this is somehow supposed to be a useful feature but it is the exact opposite for me, frustrating and confusing. Is there a way to keep that list view from auto-hiding, or any logic to when it decides it should not load showing? While I'm at it, the "back" functionality is incredibly confusing. I never know where I will be taken when I hit the Zoho specific back button, and of course the browser back button
Field from related table in report
Hi, In my Contacts, I have a look-up field which relates to Contacts. So there is effectively a contact related to a contact. In a report, I want to show a specific field from the related contact table, and not just the contact key (which is the Contact Name). How do I do this? Thanks, Anders
Putting account or contact info directly into a potential
I am looking to do something that I am used to in SaleForce, although I am fairly certain we needed to do a bit of customization to have this functionality. When I am looking at the potentials list, I would like to be able to see what country the potential is in, so that I can plan my calls around the appropriate time zone. I can see that I can add a custom field to potentials for the country, but I'd need to add that info in when I create the potential, and I don't see any way to pull that information

Custom profile question
Hi, I am trying to set up profiles for our receptionists so they can view only the basic details of both accounts and leads and not edit any info. I can manage this part alright. However I do not want our receptionist to see the notes entered. The checkbox to make notes visible/invisible is locked when editing profiles. Is there anyway around this so a user of the profile can see very limited fields of Accounts and Leads (i.e. Account owner, phone number, address and nothing else)?
adding a contact field to a report
I would like to have a report that shows both the account and the contact associated with the account. It appears that you can't add a contact to any account oriented report and visa versa. I am currently making do with the Open Potentials report but have to manually add the contact name under the Potential Name.
Leads - field for last update
I would like to create a list view of leads that shows the date of last communication. This would let me create a call/email list of everyone who hasn't responded within the last 3 days, etc. Can I add this field to the leads (and potentials) list view? thanks
Access Emails sent from CRM
Hi, Would it be possible to fetch all emails send from Zoho CRM to a certain email adress and then show these emails in a 3rd party application (ios or android) or web site? My idea is to make a "message center" where clients can log in and see all messages send to them from CRM. Kind regards, Bo Thygesen
