Online meetings through Calendar Booking form with options

Online meetings through Calendar Booking form with options

This is great to see and particularly for those users who don't have Zoho BOOKINGS.

The shame of it all though is that it could have been better.

Why do we have to set up separate booking forms for each type of meeting and for each online conferencing tool etc.

The real world operates on the basis that I should be able to configure my calendar booking with a single form and, subject to configuration settings in my CRM and for my bookings, be able to allow the user accessing the form to choose between the Face to face or Online meeting, the different VC tools I support (e.g. Zoho Meeting, Teams, Go to Meeting, Zoom etc) and optionally allow them to choose the length of time for the meeting.

All in one single form instead of a different form for each choice we have on all the attributes which is just so confusing it ie beyond belief.

Does Zoho actually ever ask the partners what the REAL business needs are because this feature fell way short of what is rally required and it would be so good to see something akin to what I believe is needed and suggest.

It would be interesting to know what other people think

Thanks... Greg

        Welcome back everyone! Last week's function was about automatically updating the recent Event date in the Accounts module. This week, it's going to be about automatically giving a custom Deal name whenever a lead is converted. Business scenario Deals are the most important records in CRM.

        Problem: We use quotes which convert to sales orders but Users / Sales Reps do not create opportunities / deals and go straight to creating a quote. This leads to poor reporting. Implementing this solution improves reporting and makes it easier for users.

We can automate this, using Custom Functions.
