Point of Sale : How to update stocks in Zoho Inventory through API
Hi, We have a retail shop with an external POS system. I would like to update the product stocks every time a product is sold in the shop. How should I do that. I was thinking of using Item Adjustment but the description does not really fit that need : "Item Adjustments are used to synchronize the inventory/stock to account for things that occur outside the normal business like theft, damaged goods, data entry error etc." Should I create a sale order instead ? I won't always have a customerId to

Batch - Take the oldest expiry date first (FIFO)
Hello, I've activated Batch Tracking for expiry date for my items. But EACH time I create an invoice, I have to select the correct batch for EACH Item. Is there a way to avoid that ? I'd like Zoho to take automatically the oldest expiring date items (A little bit like the FIFO method for cost). It adds click which is not the best for user adoption. Thx
Splitting pallets
so we buy a pallet of the same product and then sale them off as other products. So we buy salt on a pallet and then sell them off as 5 delivered or 10 delivered etc or perhaps people come in and pickup product. We would like each of these product sales to effect the inventory of the master pallet. Does that make sense.

Separate Revenue Accounts One Inventory Item
We are clothing distributor that has two main sources of revenue, wholesale and custom orders. Under our revenue accounts, I want to see these two revenue's classified as wholesale and customer, rather than just sales income. The problem that I have run into is that when creating an invoice we select an inventory item to use. This inventory item has a preset revenue account tied to it. Many of our inventory items are sold both wholesale and custom. How can I create an invoice with an item being deducted
Reserving Products
Hello Zoho, Do you have a recommended method for reserving products? The use case is you have created an estimate and/or sales order for a project, and now need to reserve those products to make sure they are available when it is time to deliver or install them. I suppose we could mark them as a not shipped package, but that does not seem ideal, because how does anyone know they are only on hold? If there is no good workaround for this, please consider adding an "on hold" status for product reservations,

Inventory app. create hundreds of composite items.
We sell sound system kits. Every kit has a master unit, speaker, wire and mounting bracket. The only difference between kits is the quantity of each component. For example, a system that will cover 250 sq/ft will have 1 master, 1 speaker, 1 wire, and 1 bracket. A system that will cover 500 sq/ft will have 1 master, 2 speakers, 2 wires, and 2 brackets.

Void an invoice and a sales order
Good afternoon, A problem I mentioned earlier in the wrong forum (https://help.zoho.com/portal/en/community/topic/how-to-void-a-invoice%3f) On Zoho Books or Inventory we can void an invoice to cancel it but keep a trace of it.

Under my company profile Zoho forces me to save the "State" dropdown as "Pennsylvania". Doing that also forces my address to show that way on invoices. Aside from that when I try and ship a package via UPS with my UPS account in Zoho is wants to use the company's address with "Pennsylvania" UPS does not except the full state name. UPS wants abbreviations. Such as "PA" I can modify the ship from address and change it to "PA" however it always defaults to "Pennsylvania" because that is how Zoho forces
Same item, different vendors - I need separate vendor numbers to show up on POs
I have an item I order from multiple vendors. Each vendor requires us to submit the order with the vendor ID number on it. I have these entered as custom fields on items. But I can't make separate templates with these numbers added. I can either add the item custom field to all pdfs or to none of them. Is there a way or a way on your roadmap to have item custom fields added to PO templates so I can easily make orders for different vendors? Thank you.
