Query on Forecasting in Zoho CRM
Hi, I am using the Enterprise version of Zoho CRM. I would like to know if there is a way to break up and assign the aggregate forecast for the organization to individual sales staff. Under the forecast tab the current system is only allowing us to create a monthly aggregate forecast for each of the quarter. How can we link this aggregate no.for any given month to the individual quota/target of each member of the sales team. Best regards, Zuhaib Shameem
Google Chrome issue with Enterprise CRM Pulse (new) web tab
Team, The new Pulse application does not load correctly in Chrome when accessing it through the CRM web tab system. All other Zoho apps open correctly in the CRM web tab. When selecting the Pulse tab in Web tabs, it kicks out of the CRM platform and goes directly to the Pulse portal.

Hi there, When trying to post to the API I always get the response 'Invalid Ticket Id' with error code 4834. I thought the api key/ticket method was no longer used and instead we should be using the authtoken (which is what I'm doing)? Thanks

How to build a new cmapaing member list?
I have number of campaigns and contacts attached to them. Suppose I have 4 campaigns: A, B, C, and D. And I have a contact X who is attached to A and D. I'd like to get a listing all contacts who are attached to A or B and at the same same time are not attached to C or D. I thought I could make it by this: ( (X attached to A) OR (X attached to B) ) AND (X is not attached to C) AND (X not attached to D). But this construction is still returning X which is wrong because X is attached of D. How do I

Outlook 2007 Match Textbox in a Task to Combobox value in the Assigned Contact
When I created the Task form, in the Page called P2, I added to the Page P2 from the Control Toolbox two text boxes.

CRM - TAX INCLSUIVE
Hi all, I have just registered this software today and am needing to get it functioning asap. I have a question, I am hoping someone can kindly assist me with. How does one add a GST (Australian Good's and service tax) to my invoicing and how does one make it inclusive. I have managed to add the GST tax, however a $100 item (including GST) is coming out as $100 + $10 = $110 when it should be $100 Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Daniel

Pricebooks, quotes, invoices and setting up
Hello, I am currently trying to setup Pricebooks. Put simply I have three products. Each product has a number of tiers ranging from 5% discount and upward in increments of 5%. Setting these up is fine. What I am having issues with are that the Quotes display the Unit Price and the List Price but not the Actual Price once the Pricebook discount structure has been applied. The customer sees the following on a print preview: Qty = 50 List Price = 29.90 Total = 1,345,50 When the customer does the
Can the CRM Tab Names be reset to their original
I'm experimenting with CRM, and have made some changes to the tab names. However, since this is a dual-language (English-Spanish) configuration, when I changed the tab in Spanish (Lead to Prospecto), the same word is used in the English version. When I changed it back to "Posibles clientes" (the default), that is what shows in English as well, NOT the English default. Ideally, I'd like to set tab names separately in both languages (Posibles clientes -> Prospectos AND Leads -> Prospects). As

Leads within a Project
My PROJECTS require financing which I seek from various sources (banks, private capital, etc), which I would like to be LEADS for the Project, until they provide funds, at which time I convert them into Accounts. Is there a way to create a link Projects and Leads? I can do Contacts but I find that the Leads tab provides more of the information that I need. What about VENDORS? Instead of LEADS, associate them to PROJECTS? Can that be done?

Fancy ways to display workflows?
Hi, My company works in defined workflows which are easy to draw on a piece of paper. I'd like to implement them in Zoho and I believe I can. I was wondering though if I could then create a report, say for every sales person, which shows all of their active processes and what stage they're at. It would be great if this could be visual rather than textual. We love graphics. What's the best way to approach this? Feel free to point out if this question was not clear enough.
Better themes
Changing the color of the tab bar is not the most attractive theme. I want a more customizable Zoho. For example, custom fonts, more backround colors (not just grey, white, and pale... blah!), a wider logo ( 190:65 pixels is small...), and ability to change the color of layouts. That would make Zoho a much more appealing CRM for those who are unsatisfied with the current theme. Thoughts? Alex

Unexplainable search behavior
If I do a search for "HDR" I get 9 accounts that match. If I search for HDR Omaha, I get one account that matches, and that account does not appear in the "HDR" search. Why would a search that should produce a subset of another search show files that weren't in the original?

Why is CVrecords limited to 250 API calls per day, regardless of version
We are a Zoho Professional subscriber trying to link Campaign Monitor subscriptions to Zoho leads. We have already gotten Zapier, our connection service, to reduce call frequency to every 30 minutes. Why is the Zoho API limit only 250 for CVRecords requests... the only type of request we actually use? When will this be increased?
Increase API limit for CVrecords from 250 to 500
We are using Zapier to add Campaign Monitor Subscribers to Zoho as leads. I have already worked with Zapier to reduce our call interval to every 30 minutes instead of every 15, but we are still exceeding our allotment of 250 calls a day for CVrecords. Limiting users to 250 calls a day, no matter what edition we are on, seems a bit stingy to me. Surely Zoho can increase its API call limit at least slightly. My next step is to ask Zapier to change our call interval to once an hour. They have been
