Workflow Based on Manual Journal

Workflow Based on Manual Journal

Manual journal entries are one of the few areas that cannot kick off a workflow automation in Zoho Books currently. I would propose considering adding that.

My use case is that the payroll provider I use (a flavor of SurePayroll) has a Zoho Books automation that makes my payroll entry for me automatically. It's awesome. This is done via journal entry, which is fine.

I would like to be able to automatically be able to generate some expenses based on that journal entry (to record 401k contributions, for example), and being able to have a workflow triggered from a journal entry seems like the best way to accomplish that.

Another logical use case is that an organization may wish to send journal entries through a review or approval process, or at least alert a supervisor when they're entered.

Thanks for the consideration!
