Zoho Books Integration
Overview
Zoho Books is accounting and financial management software designed to streamline your business's bookkeeping, invoicing, expense tracking, and more. A crucial step in managing the finances with Zoho Books is maintaining an accurate database of customers and vendors. With the Zoho Forms - Zoho Books integration, you can automate the process of adding customers and vendors by seamlessly transferring the form submission to Zoho Books, ensuring efficient data management and workflow automation. You can also extend this automation to the custom modules you have created in Zoho Books. In addition to field data, you can also send attachments to Zoho Books. These include uploaded files and PDFs generated from the form workflows.
Integration Setup
To integrate your form with Zoho Books,
- Navigate to the Integrations tab and click Zoho Books under Task Management & Finance from the left menu.
- Click Integrate.
- Select the Organization and the Module to which you want to push the form entries.
Note: Currently, the integration supports the Customers module under Sales, the Vendors module under Purchases, and Custom Modules. - Map all the mandatory Zoho Books fields to the corresponding Zoho Forms field. To map more fields, click + Add Fields.
You can map File Upload and Image Upload fields in Zoho Forms to the corresponding custom upload fields in Zoho Books. These fields can be pushed to Zoho Books either through field mapping (as illustrated above) or via the Attachment section (as explained below), depending on your configuration. - To send form attachments to Zoho Books, select Yes under the Attachment section and choose the required Upload fields and PDF templates. Files uploaded through these fields, along with PDFs from approval processes and form submission workflows, will be pushed to Zoho Books.
