• Security Update: Zoho Docs is phasing out TLS 1.0 and 1.1 support

  We'd like to draw your attention to an important security update that will take effect on August 31, 2018.

• Introducing True Syncing of Read-only Folders - Zoho Docs Sync

  Some files are to be read, others to be edited, and some few to be scrutinized and reviewed. The permissions you grant while you share a file decide the level of activity a user can do on your file.  If you have a set of files to be shared with your team and you don't want the contents to be changed in any way, then you can share the files in a read-only folder.​ But what happens when read-only folders are synced to desktops?                                                 Read-only folders synced

• View Audit Trail field

  The Audit Trail feature is great, but its data is only available to admin users. It would be really great to have a system field "Audit trail" that we can add to the detailed view of a record. This would allow supervisors, directors and etc. to quickly track what changes have been done by whom for each record. It is a current feature from a client of mine and while it's probably possible to hard code it, since this data is already available in Zoho, I would be surprised to hear how hard it would

• Markup instead of discount??

  Is it possible to have the discount field on an invoice or estimate be a markup instead? It's the very same functionality that I am looking for - to be able to markup an individual item by either a $ or a % and have that cost added (instead of subtracted) to the item cost.  Currently, I use the tax feature to accomplish this, but it's very awkward to have "Markup 15%" listed after the subtotal. Plus, if I want to markup items at different rates, I end up with several "markup" lines in the totals
