CRM and Contacts
How do users view their contacts on mobile devices? I have 800 contacts and can't view them on an iPhone or iPad unless I log into the desktop PC version on my iPad. I think it's absolutely crazy that contacts can't be synced with CRM!! This basically means I need to migrate the contacts to CRM but is there a way to sync CRM with google contacts so I can use Plaxo to sync google contacts with an outlook system for my employer?

Will there be an iPad app that is more powerful than the iPhone app?
Will there be an iPad app that is more powerful than the iPhone app? The iPad does a great job navigating the website, but an app would be ideal. There are a couple of editing features that are not as smooth as they could be and there is some Flash on the website version that is not compatible with the iPad.
Setting up a Zoho system
We have been using the free version of Zoho for quite awhile, and I'd like to figure out how to make sure Im utilizing all of the features available. So the first part of my question is related to setting up a system. I think the easiest way is to explain what I've been doing and see if anyone has ideas or suggestions on how I could be working more efficiently in Zoho. Im not sure if this is relevant but we are a Landscaping company. When I receive new lead information from like ServiceMagic, I go
"Cases" vs "Tasks"
Hello CRM community, So......When a case is opened, it inevitably results in a task or a series of tasks for the rest of the team. We have some team members who simply create appropriate tasks for the appropriate user when a client calls in with an issue and do not create a case. However, we have some other team members who create a case and then go about assigning the tasks needed to clear up the case. However, when the tasks are complete, it doesn’t automatically clear the case.....and we end
Please assist with web to lead issue
Hi there, Before I start - I am speaking from an end-user perspective. I have a developer working on my site - so I'm not too clued up with the coding bits. We have a web-to-lead form for enquiries on a new Toyota Etios at http://www.toyota-etios.co.za . The developer probably has some sort of javascript form to handle the form - as it pops up in a box, when clicking enquire. The form code is based on the Zoho generated code. All goes well when submitting the info, but the data doesn't get imported

Sales manager sharing leads with subordinates
I'm having trouble getting sharing working the way I want it. I have a sales manager who is over two organizations. He's able to see all the leads of his subordinates. The problem is that he has leads assigned to him. These leads are either in Region 1 or Region 2. He wants the sales people in Region 1 to see his leads in Region 1 and wants the sales people in Region 2 to see his leads in Region 2. However, he doesn't want the sales people in Region 1 to see the leads in Region 2 - and vice versa.

How do you use the Opportunity and the Quoatation modules differently?
This may seem like a stupid question, but I would really like to know how do you use the "Opportunities" and the "Quoation" modules. I feel like they're the same. And the Quoatation module actually has more useful and specific fields like the products and their values, but in the Opportunity you only have a single field for the Amount Value. I'm new to CRM and I don't understand the need for "Opportunities" anymore. But the "Sales Funnel" is useful only in Opportunities and NOT in Quoatations

Created Date without Created Time
Hello, Is there a way to create a view in Contacts that shows only the "Created Date" without the Time? We need to make an email template for following up old contacts, and want to include something like: "Hi NAME, you contacted us on DATE to enquire...." having the exact time there incl. minute sounds a bit weird. Or can this be at least done via an export so we can email merge via Outlook with that Field? Kenneth
Function fields in Zoho CRM
I would like to use Zoho function fields in CRM. Setting-up the function is pretty easy. But I do not see any value in the field when I select a specific field. When setting up a function-field I get a weird warning message at the begining. Unfortunately, I have no idea what it says, because its translation into German is totally wrong. Any ideas what to do to get the function field working? Thanks in advance.

ZohoCRM: Setup - Fields- Show "Last Edited By" As an organization grows and the logic evolves around processes it is very important to be able to know who changed what and why and when. A last edited by/ versioning history is very important and should be part of every field edit with a place for owners/ admins to get warnings AND a place for the editor to make notes as to why the changes were necessary. http://www.screencast-o-matic.com/watch/cijV15UR dgd

CRM Calendar Issue
Hi, When I create an event in the CRM that is longer than an hour it only visually blocks out 1 hour on the calendar no matter how long the event lasts. I would like to ask that the visual representation of the event match the length in the event details. In our business we normally have 2 hr long sessions for each of our clients and this causes confusion with scheduling. I also noticed that if we import those events into ZoHo Calendar it also shows only a 1 hour session visually, but also in the
API Method convertLead Troubles
From the API docs, it appears that the xmlData parameter is optional in the convertLead API call. Furthermore, xmlData is only documented for adding a Potential. I have confirmed that it is in fact not optional, or at least the only way I can get convertLead to work is by adding a fake potential. All I want to do is convert a lead to an account and a contact **without** a potential. How can this be done? Conflicting Documentation: 1) In this section, the highlighted items are I assume required.
Bug: Importing an empty column in excel is not cosidered as empty
I have had great problems with this until i figured out what happened. When you import an excelsheet into the contacts module and it has a column in the sheet which does not contain data on every row it seems that during the import process Zoho CRM writes the empty cells to the mapped fields in Zoho and from then on those fields are considered not empty. For instance i import 100 contacts of which there is column called 'starting date' in the excelsheet. Some contacts have a starting date and some
