Hello, I have been using Zoho books and inventory and based my currency in USD because most of my PO to suppliers, and expenses are made in this currency I recently open and create a Shopify account but based currency is HKD so it can be linked to my HK Bank to avoid xrate fees.

Hello again, Hope this post finds you in good health. Last time we saw how to apply a preset credit card charge to your sales orders. This week, we will see how we can notify ourselves through a bot inside of Zoho Cliq whenever someone in our organization makes an offline/manual sales order in Zoho Inventory. How does this work? A user drafts a sales order or an offline order within Zoho Inventory, which then triggers a message containing the name of the customer and the sales order number (or whateverVoid 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. When I create an invoice from a Sales Order, I can void the invoice, but the sales order still remains active. It still shows me that I need to do one package Could we have the option to void a Sales Order? Thank you! Alex.Update Sales order
We're unable to update the sales order using the api (v1), facing errors like `Json is not well formatted` and `Internal error`. Please look into the issue, I'll provide json object if needed. P.s zoho sample json request for updating the here ( https://www.zoho.com/inventory/api/v1/#Sales_Orders_Retrieve_a_Sales_Order ) also returning error of invalid json.US State Abbreviations
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 forcesSame 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.Zoho Inventory API List All Items missing manufacturer
Is there any way to include 'manufacturer' in the List All Items data? It is included when I retrieve an item but not when I list all items. The manufacturer is important. The only workaround would be to list all the items and then go retrieve each item individually but that would be a major performance hit all around. https://www.zoho.com/inventory/api/v1/#Items_List_all_the_items Regards, RoryCannot access stock on an item that was converted to Batch tracking after initial stock was added
We are currently testing Inventory and I stumbled upon something "weird". A created an item and put some stock (100 pcs) on it. After that, I enabled batch tracking on this item. Again, I added stock, creating a batch (500 pcs) in the process. Now for the interesting part: when I sell the item, the item shows a stock of 600 (correct), but when I enter a sales amount, I can only select stock from the batch (500). The initial stock amount, before setting the item to batch, is not accessible anymoreEdit batches
We would like to be able to edit batch names/numbers. We currently use batches to also indicate the bin location of the product. When we move a product in the warehouse, we need to change the batch name to reflect the new location. Currently, we need to transfer the batch to a "dummy" warehouse, and then back again. Pretty cumbersome. Would it be possible to crate an option to edit batches? Or is a warehouse bin location feature in development? hanks RobAssigning Item Groups to a user
I don't know if this is possible but we should be able to assign certain items or item group to a particular user. This would eliminate mistakes if a company has inventory and non-inventory items or items that are purchase only items or sales only items. Zoho inventory can be an effective tool in a manufactory setting if these features are enabled.How to connect Zoho Creator (Point of Sales) POS and Zoho Inventory

Hi. I am having trouble and I cant imagine I am the only one with this issue. Under the company profile Zoho forces you to save the "state" in the drop down box as "Pennsylvania" and does not allow "PA". In doing so when I try to create a package using UPS in Zoho Inventory is pops up a error message "Pennsylvania is not a valid state". I have to manually go into "ship from" address while making a label and save the "ship from" address using "PA" and not "Pennsylvania".

I think serial numbers should be added to the purchase receive page as well and become mandatory on that page and should be optional on bills. At the moment serial numbers are mandatory on the bills page. I think this is a mistake since most manufacturers will send a bill without any serial number and will either send the bill numbers later with the shipping documents or some do not even send the serial numbers by documents you will simply just "view" the serial numbers when you receive the items.Line Item Statuses
Hi, We are looking to use zoho for our e-commerce solution, however I can only see two statuses for a sales order line item. 'Packed' and 'Invoiced'. If we with to have other statuses 'en route to country, 'ordered from supplier' etc etc - is there a way to do this ?How would you manage forward contracts in Zoho Inventory?
Hi there, We are a distribution business, selling our products on the spot market as well as through forward contracts. A customer might want to sign a contract for 500kg at £11/kg over 12 months. How would you track this to stay organised and make sure you have enough inventory to honour the contracts? At the moment we have 2 warehouse in Zoho. Ideally I would have 1 warehouse for each contract, but the costs of adding more warehouses is too high.Need to delete item from purchase order after received all items.

I am unable to delete the duplicate item after having recorded it as received. How do I correct this? JuliaTip #2.2 Auto-updating shipment charges from multiple shipment records to invoices in Zoho Inventory
Hello again, Earlier today, we saw how you can automate the process of calculating shipment charges from every shipment order associated with a sales order and adding it to the total amount. And here in this post which happens to be the part 2 of the same, we will see how we can do the same for your invoices. Now before we begin, you need a few things for this custom function to work: 1) You have to make the invoice from a sales order by opening a sales order in Shipped status, clicking on the CreateInvetory value is visible even after hiding the purchase price to user
Hi, we hide the purchase price for sales staff and enables inventory reports for them since they need to check lot of reports , but when we enable the Inventory Reports, they can also see Inventory Valuation Summary, which is a BIG BIG bug in my opinion. With one function you want to hide the purchase price from them but it got of no use if they can access the inventory valuation summary. So i think, when we hide the purchase price from one user, inventory valuation summary should not be visiblePayment in Android app
Hello, After invoice is sent, we are not getting an option to record payment in Android app. we see payments tab but we do not have option to add payment there. let us know how can we do it in Android appWhat's New in Zoho Inventory - March 2019
