TASK CSV Export - please add URL as a field
please add the task url as an exportable field in the CSV Export. We are trying to automate printed labels for each task from a brother printer. we want one of the fields to be a QR code that brings us right to the task. I tested this with the task URL and it works perfectly, we just need it exposed in the CSV file. Hopefully this isnt hard to do and you can reveal it quickly?
Recurring tasks and budget hours - "planned hours" within Budget Status do not include recurrences
eg. Task = 20hrs Recurrence = 10 x weekly My understanding is that "planned hours" for this should be 20hrs x 10 = 200hrs. Is this correct understanding? Currently when I plan projects this does not happen. The "recurring" symbol shows beside the task and the details are correct....however only 20 hours are applied to the "planned hours" - the recurrences are not counted. Is there something I might be doing wrong?

Sales Orders in Finance Section - When?
The inclusion of Sales Orders in Projects in Zoho Books was huge. When can we expect to see them in the Zoho Projects integration with Books? We need a selection called "Sales Orders" just like there is for Estimates and Invoices. Adding project Purchase Orders and Bills would also be extremely useful, but Sales Orders is a must. Thank You
How to divide a single task into several different days?
How to divide a single task into several different days? Let me explain, John has a 24-hour task. I schedule it for him Monday through Thursday. He has another task from another project at 8am on Tuesday that I can't move. Currently, in order to have a fair resource management, I divide the 24h task into 3 tasks of 8 hours that I place Monday, Wednesday and Thursday. This becomes complicated to manage with about 20 divided tasks that I have to shift continuously. Do you have a solution? Thank you
Base line
Hola a todos! Soy nueva en zoho projects y tengo una duda que no puedo resolver, estoy dando seguimiento a un proyecto, pero como en cualquier proyecto, las fechas de inicio y fin "REALES" para una tarea muchas veces son distintas a las planeadas. En zoho projects puedo ver que ya viene la fecha de término real de una tarea pero no la de inicio real, por lo que agregué un campo fecha dentro de mi plantilla de tareas. Pero existe la manera de que se visualice en la linea base? En mi diagrama de

Import/Associate "Task Description" field from MS Project
Hello, Our workflow is to create a project in MS Project (much faster than creating every individual task in Zoho), and import it to a Zoho project. When I import the project, I have very few issues except I'm not given the option to associate my custom field "Task Descriptions' to the Zoho "Task Descriptions" field. (See attached image) How can I accomplish this without opening every single task and copy+pasting the descriptions? Thanks

Tip 47: View dependent tasks and dependency status
Projects can have multiple tasks that need to be carried out in sequence. This results in task dependency, for example an invoice can be sent only if the quote is ready. Therefore, the predecessor task must complete in order for the successor to begin. To take early and proactive action, you should be able to view the dependent tasks. In Zoho Projects, you can see the dependency status in the task details page. You can hover over the status and view all the dependent tasks. Clicking on the individual

Tip 48: Importing subtasks and setting dependencies in XLS, CSV, and JSON files
Importing files from one platform to another is a tedious job and it is necessary to maintain the structure of the modules. You can import XLS/ JSON/ CSV files into Zoho Projects. While importing a XLS/CSV/JSON files, you can now import subtasks and also set dependency between the tasks in the import file. Import Subtasks: Consider a scenario where a project owner has to import a csv file with two tasks "Roof (T8)" and "Setting & Curing (T6)". While importing the file, he must enter the PARENT TASK

Is a new gmail add-on coming??
It appears the ability to add a new task, bug etc. from right within gmail is gone with the new gmail. I am surprised not to see a bunch of posts in this forum asking when you will be releasing a new gmail add-on that works with Googles new gmail integration for addons. Being able to quickly add tasks and so on from gmail is one of Zoho's many strong features, I hope not to lose it. Yes I know you can email to a project but that is much different. Thank You

Be able to re-run a Task Export with current data
It would be great if a previously run Task Export, could be re-run again with current data. In effect this would allow the saving of a Task Export as a template. By re-running the Report, the Filters and Columns would remain, but the data in the export would be updated.
Importing from CRM to Projects
Hello, I have about 300 files in a custom module in our CRM. I was going to try and "project manage" these from the CRM, but they are just too advanced to be able to track the tasks properly. I have them all exported to a .CSV file, but can't for the life of me figure out how import them into Projects. It will only me to add tasks, not entire projects. Please help. I do not want to hand enter each and every record. Thank you, Craig Brandon
Project Views Updates Coming?
I cannot find the thread but there was a comment from someone at Zoho many months ago that project Views would be seeing a big upgrade at some point with new functionality. I am curious if that is something we will see any time soon? I am attaching a screenshot from another software product we also use that allows us to easily create any type of view we want including the fields we want to group by and/or sort by. This seemingly little thing is so big that we still use this other product to manage
Productivity and efficiency per user
Dear Zoho Support, How can I obtain the productivity and efficiency per user? Is this function available with the express package? By productivity, I mean how many tasks is the user accomplishing per week, and efficiency could mean the % of task achievement in time... Do you have this in statistics? Many thanks, Denisse

Disable all emails to clients
We do not want Zoho sending emails to clients without our explicit permission. Is there a way to disable all emails? For example, when I associate a project with a client, they get an email even though we have indicated that they should be opted out of all emails. Quite frankly, it is infuriating that the system is, essentially, sending spam to people just because we want to be able to track that they are associated with a project.
Projects associated with multiple groups
Hi Support Team I was wondering if there was a possibility to file a project within multiple groups? Currently we have groups with multiple projects, but there doesn't seem to be any functionality i can find to have projects sitting across multiple groups (it seems you can look at projects by group, owner and client). Thanks for your help. Luke

Zoho Project for CRM is clumsy and not intuitive
Zoho Pdoes a lot of things right as a platform provider and I have to say the support we have received has been better than many of the other SaaS platforms we work with. However, they do need to improve the diagnosing experience with their customers and get rid of old streams of discussion that really only help to confuse many people using the most current version of Zoho products. That being said, Zoho Projects promises a lot of fantastic integration within the CRM and the users of the CRM,
Permision for users to edit task completion percentages?
How can I allow users to edit completion percentages of tasks and limit them from being able to edit anything else? The only option I see is to give users permission to edit tasks in general that they own or are assigned to. I don't want them to be able to edit everything about the tasks. The only thing I want them to be able to edit and update is completion percentage. This way they won't mess up budgeted hours, change dates or delete things on accident. Is this possible?
Reflect Deals Financial Stats in Associated Project
I am learning Zoho so please excuse if I misunderstand something. I set up a project, marketing campaign. Besides regular task management I see that projects can be associated with deals. My assumption was that if I do, I can then see the stats from those deals in the Dashboard or Finance tab of the project. I closed some deals during this campaign and associated them (had to create accounts for each contact just for that). When I look for any financial data, I do not see the amounts of the won deals.

Unable to use HTML email in a Custom Function using Deluge sendmail[]
Hi, I'm trying to create a custom function that sends an email, an HTML email with formatting and images, to be used with a business rule in Zoho Projects. I've stripped the 'message' part of the sendmail function right back to basics but it still fails. In the example below, removing the DIV styling tags allows it to save successfully. Won't save with styling tags, or image tags.If the message is changed to a simple "<div>TEST</div>" it saves. Can anybody please shed some light on what the problem
