Hello, I am trying to create a sales order from Zoho CRM and that this is automatically created in Zoho Inventory, I am using the following data: data = "{\"salesorder_number\":\"SO- 00003\",\"date\":\"2015-05-28T00:00:00.000Z\",\"shipment_date\":\"2015-06-02T00:00:00.000Z\",\"custom_fields\":[{}],\"reference_number\":\"REF-S-00003\",\"line_items\":[{\"item_id\":4815000000044100,\"line_item_id\":4815000000044897,\"name\":\"Laptop-white\/15inch\/dell\",\"description\":\"Just a sample description.\",\"item_order\":0,\"bcy_rate\":122,\"customer_id\":582535000000092473,\"rate\":122,\"quantity_invoiced\":2,\"quantity_packed\":2,\"quantity_shipped\":2,\"unit\":\"qty\",\"tax_id\":4815000000044043,\"tax_name\":\"Sales
Warehouse name via API
Am I right that it is not possible to get or set warehouse name for Sales order line items via API? If so perhaps that functionality already on the roadmap? It is not possible to build external reporting/dashboard solution without possibility to find out warehouse name,

Multiple Dropdown types for Custom Field
Hi, I am using the free version of Zoho Inventory and am trying to set up multiple dropdown custom fields in a sales order form but am currently limited to 1. Is it possible to have more than 1? Thank you. Sung
Despatching sales orders in Inventory
Hi, We raised a question a few weeks back regarding how Inventory tracks stock. When goods are received we book them in against the relevant purchase order but Inventory doesn't allow us to raise packing notes until the purchase order has a bill created for it. It can often take days for us to receive bills which means we can have goods hanging around waiting to be despatched. You said you were working on a way that would allow the packing notes to be raised even if there was no stock available,
Add Email Template For When Order Ship Out
Hi There, Just doing my first round of orders with Zoho and noticed that there is no email that I can send out to customers when their order ships. In some of the other shopping carts I have used it brings up an option to include a FedEx tracking number as well which is super helpful. See my attachment as an example. Would be a great addition to your service. Thanks, David Hewlett CEO www.chardonnaybox.com

Shipment Status Fulfilled When Adding Sales Order Through API
Hi There, I have a variable product in WooCommerce. When I go to make an order for a variable product, I have been able to map the variation in WooCommerce to the variation in Zoho Inventory by using the SKU and the exact same product name. However, when the sales order comes through on Zoho Inventory, it seems to suggest that the order has already been packed and shipped which isn't correct. I attach a screenshot below to show what I mean (though I have removed the billing and shipping address for
Recent Updates to Sales Order Statuses and Indicators
Zoho, I'm really happy to see the recent updates to the Sales Order statuses and indicators. I have some feedback that I think will help make the UI even more clear and useful. First, on the main Sales Order page (/#app/salesorders): In addition to the new "Closed" status and green indicator button for packages that have been shipped, I recommend the following: Provide a full green indicator status for invoices that have been paid. This is would act as final status for a fully paid invoice. Provide
What stops me from packaging and shipping an order when the inventory is negative?
It seems if the inventory value is negative, that Zoho Inventory should not allow me to create a Package and Ship it. But, there seems to be nothing to stop me from doing that other than when I go to physically package the item and realize that there is no stock. There also seems to be nothing on the screen that even indicates to me that I should not package and ship. To me this is the fundamental point of an inventory system. Am I doing something wrong?
Mutli-Warehouse management - users privileges
How we can assign specific user(s) to warehouse(s) so they can only see the stocks of the those warehouses and manage sales orders on them.
eBay Syncing Description & Image
Although items listed on eBay are successfully syncing, Inventory does not pull the description and first image. Can these two fields be mapped so they are imported each time Inventory syncs? As it stands, the description has to be manually copied & pasted and an image manually uploaded, neither of which are efficient.
Having to enter bill before stock shows as available.
Hi, Am I right in thinking you must create a bill from the purchase order receipt before the goods are available for shipping?
Give access to inventory numbers to outside sources
Good morning, My current business deals with intermediate businesses (websites, catalogues...) that sell our products. Is there a way to give them limited access to our database ? Ideally one page with the basic info of our products (SKU, Description...but NOT purchase price) and the current stock ? An excel sheet export would give an image of the stock level at a given time but we would need to do that manual procedure frequently. Thanks for your help! Alex.
Provide Warehouse Report as Spreadsheet
Good day, I appreciate that Zoho Inventory provides a number of useful reports with the option to export them as spreadsheets (CSV or XLS). However, the Warehouse report does not provide this and I can't see a way to export our inventory levels separately for each warehouse. This is a fairly crucial piece of information and it would be incredibly valuable to have this as an option. Thanks very much, Chris
Adding Shipping Costs to purchase orders after booking in
Hi I need some help with adding shipping charges which our suppliers bill us for sending goods to our warehouse. These charges vary depending on the weight and size of what's being shipped so we never know how much this will be until we receive the invoice. That's not too bad as we've created an item (service) that goes to cost of sales that we can add to a purchase order after we get the invoice - a bit messy and if anyone knows a better way I'd be grateful to hear it. However, we also use the
Use Of Custom Functions
I have a number of housekeeping functions which ideally need to be initiated manually. I would like to create a Control Panel with a number of buttons to initiate each function. For example: Selling Price Calculation I would like to calculate the selling price of each item, based on the buy price (in currency), the currently defined exchange rate, import duty cost, import shipping cost, profit margin etc. I Ideally, it would be helpful to be able to place a button on the item page to update that
When Creating Custon Templates in HTML, is any HTML blocked?
I am pleased that that custom HTML templates have been reintroduced - well done Zoho! To avoid a lot of experimentation, are there any limits on HTML objects that can be used? As the HTML template will be converted into a PDF file for output, it is possible that the converter will have limitations. John Legg Owner: The Debug Store
Harmonization between inventory and books
Good morning, Would it be possible to adjust some parts of inventory to fit with what is possible with books ? I mainly create sales order and invoices on inventory so that I can also create packages and have my inventory adjusted. BUT I need to go to books to : • Create a contact with adjusted titles • Enter the bank charges That would be great to avoid juggling between one page and the other. Thank you! Alex.
Questions about Licences for Zoho Inventory
Hi, I got a problem, I started a zoho inventory account, got the paid version, but somehow, I can't activate the option to follow an item because it's already linked to a transaction. I would like to start over, or if maybe there is a possibility to enable the tracking of the item in the inventory even if it's linked to a transaction, it would be great. Thanks for the help. Alexis
Ebay Integration Parameters
Currently, I use my ECommerce Platform, X-Cart to sync items with eBay UKand fetch new Orders from Ebay. These orders are then passed to Zoho Inventory. I would prefer to link Zoho Inventory to eBay UK directly. However, there are a few essential configuration parameters that need to be setup and I am unable to find them in the Zoho Inventory Ebay module. These are: 1) The ability to flag individual stock items for listing on eBay. I only want to list selected stock items on eBay. 2) I need to
ZoHo Inventory, User, Bar code
I have some questions. How many users can work simultaneously in zoho inventory? and there is a solution to create barcodes automatically?
Should I use the Zoho Inventory API or Zoho Books API for Sales Orders
I need to import Sales Orders from my X-Cart ECommerce software into Zoho. Currently I import them into Zoho CRM because the items database allows for more custom fields. Unfortunately CRM cannot pass Sales Orders to Books/Inventory. I am thinking of pushing the Sales Orders to Books or Inventory directly as well. Which API would be best? My Sales Orders can be in multiple currencies. John Legg Owner: The Debug Store
Sales orders status not refreshing in Zoho inventory
I am noticing that the sales orders status dashboard in Zoho Inventory is not refreshing properly. This is a recent phenomenon. For fulfilled orders, it shows only the Invoicing completion dot and the other 2 dots get refreshed only if I visit the order page and then come back to the dashboard. Similarly, for an order with an invoice voided in Zoho Books, the Inventory dashboard does not get refreshed even after I visit the order page as well as the invoice tab. Please refer the attached screenshots
Shopify integrations
can we have an option to Edit Shopify or other marketplace orders in Zoho? the orders do flow into Zoho, but the tax settings automatically change from inclusive to exclusive. Since the order cannot be edited, this makes the order unusable. hence, i have cut off Shopify. Any thoughts?
Package shipment has no telephone from contact
Hello, When creating a package and shipping of a sales order the telephone is not automatically copied from the contact into the "To Ship Address". How can I make the telephone in the To Ship Address be filled with the contact telephone without me having to write it manually? The rest of the address is correctly filled, just misses the telephone ... Thanks!
Zoho Inventory API - Examples Needed
I am about to implement a link to push Sales Orders from my X-Cart ECommerce platform to Zoho Inventory. The current documentation in the help system is very sparse and does not include enough detail to allow me to work out if I can: 1) Push Sales Orders in multiple currencies. For each item in the Sales Order, I need to be able to specify the Currency and Exchange rate. Is that possible? 2) Prior to pushing the Sales Order I need to check that the customer already has a Zoho Contact record.

after filling the item sample sheet provided by ZOHO the inventory options will be disabled by default , how can we enable the item inventory option from the sample sheet that was downloaded from zoho ?
Delivered Packages
Hi, In Inventory, Packaging Tab - the orders move from Packages Not Shipped to Shipped Packages and finally into Delivered Packages. I thought the orders would have cleared from this final section when the invoice was raised but my orders seem to be staying there indefinitely. Is this right and you have to manually delete the delivered packages or is there a problem with the system? Any help gratefully received.
Sales Order Automation - Shipment Dates
Hi, I am having trouble figuring out how to set up an automation. Scenario - Customer issues a new order with a ship date 4 months out. I enter a sales order with the appropriate "Expected Shipment Date". I want ZOHO to notify me (either email or pop-up) to prepare the shipment for this order on the expected shipment date. **CAVEAT** I don't want to get a notification for every single sales order. I only want to be notified of "future shipments". I've created a few workflows rules, but none of them

ZOHO Inventory Update to Shopify not working
Products were created in shopify, sync'd and confirmed in ZOHO Inventory with initial inventory count of zero. PO was created and received in ZOHO inventory and counts were updated on the products in ZOHO inventory. The inventory count was not updated in Shopify though. I have performed manual sync and also waited 4+ hours, inventory counts in Shopify still don't reflect the values in ZOHO inventory. Any ideas to resolve and sync inventory levels?
Update Available Inventory When Order is Packed
It would be extremely helpful to have the option of updating available inventory when a Sales Order has been packed. It is very common to have an order that is neither invoiced nor shipped while the items on the order are, however, no longer in inventory because they have been packed and staged for shipping Thanks for the consideration.
Having problems adding new items or editing current ones
There seems to be a problem with adding new items or editing current items in my inventory. Every time I go to add a new item it just spins and never completes. About every 3rd or 4th attempt to add the same item will be successful. Same with editing existing items. This just started happening in the last hour or so. What is going on? -Tom PS: This is very frustrating. It started working fine for about 15 minutes and now is back to failing nearly every time. Zoho, please fix the problem!
Purchase price of the composited items can't be updated after saved the first time
Even if there was no sales order yet, the purchase price of composite items can't be updated after saved the first time (11605.65) as it showed in the system (11,685.26).
Add "Paid" Column to Sales Orders Table
To help quickly view the status of all orders, please consider adding a "Paid" column to the Sales Order table. Each order essentially has two paths of completion: fulfillment and payment. As it is now we have columns (Packed and Shipped) to represent the related statuses for Fulfillment, but only one column (Invoice) to represent the related statuses for Payment. Doing so would better represent these two sales order completion paths: Invoice > Paid Packed > Shipped And, in the same way that the
Zoho Inventory - LTL - Barcode Scanning
Up until now, our inventory was handled by a 3rd party in a warehouse where we rented space. We are now bringing this process in-house, leasing our own warehouse, and fulfilling all of our own orders. We would like to use Zoho Inventory. However, there is a lack of FedEx LTL available for it's shipping integration. Can you offer any suggestions to this? Also, the below link is the only resource I can see as it relates to barcode scanning etc. Do you have any other resources that would be helpful
Add "Partially Packed" and "Fully Packed" to packing slip statuses
To make help clarify the status of a packing slip, can you please add "Partially Packed" and "Fully Packed" to the statuses? These are much more helpful statuses than simply "Not Shipped" and "Shipped". I believe the available statuses for a packing slip would then be: Partially Packed Fully Packed Shipped Thank you for the consideration! Chris p.s. Sorry for the duplicate post. The original post was categorized as a question when it should be an idea proposal.
