What’s New in Zoho Expense: January – April 2024

Hello users,

We are thrilled to share some exciting product updates and enhancements in Zoho Expense that will help you streamline and improve your travel and expense management experience. Our latest additions include new integrations, new preferences in Purchase Requests, along with updates for Android and iOS apps. Get ready to delve into the detailed insights about all the updates. Let's begin!

Fetch Real-Time Feeds for Card Transactions (US Edition)

Allow employees to connect their corporate cards with Zoho Expense to fetch real-time feeds directly from your Visa card network. Once connected, feeds will be fetched into Zoho Expense as soon as transactions are made. Next, the fetched feeds will be matched with the existing expenses or they will be created as new expenses automatically. Currently, this feature is available for early access for US edition users using Visa cards issued in the US region. If you want to enable it for your organization, write to support@zohoexpense.com  

Zoho Expense - myBiz Integration (India edition)

Integrate with myBiz and empower your employees to book their flights and hotels for their official trips. Once integrated, based on your company’s policies, your employees can choose their preferred flights and hotels from a range of options and submit them for approval in Zoho Expense. After approval, they can complete the booking through myBiz. Also, expenses will be automatically created in Zoho Expense for the booking made using myBiz. Learn More

To enable this integration: Go to Admin View > Integrations > myBiz > Contact Us. 


Zoho Expense - AirPlus Integration

Connect your AirPlus card for direct feed integration with Zoho Expense. Once connected, feeds will be automatically fetched and matched with your transactions. Also, you can reconcile, approve, and reimburse employees for expenses made using the AirPlus card more securely and seamlessly like never before. Write to us at support@zohoexpense.com, and we'll enable direct feeds for your AirPlus card.



New Notification Preferences for Purchase Request

Now, you can choose to send email and in-app notifications to your employees when purchase requests are on-hold, marked as processed, reverted the processed status, added comments, or canceled. It helps your employees stay informed about the procurement process and make better decisions in your organization.

To enable this preference: Go to Admin View > Modules > Purchase Requests. Enable the options and click Save.

    • Field Type: Address, Change District/State to Dropdown with picklist??

      Using the Address Field type, is there a way to make the District/State field be a dropdown with a picklist so the users can select rather than type the state name every time? I know this can be done if I use a drowdown field for the State (or entire address information), but that isn't as tidy as using the address field type. I apologize if this is a duplicate. I posted this question the other day, or so I though. Can't find that post.
