‍

Which $100K deal is worth more in reality?

• Net 30, low risk, money available sooner
• Net 90, higher risk, money tied up longer

We automated this logic in Zoho:

When payment terms change in Books →
Deal values auto-adjust in CRM considering:

• Time value (longer terms = less present value)
• Default risk (extended terms = higher risk)
• Automatic sync between Books & CRM

Example:
$100K Deal
Net 30 = $100K (baseline)
Net 60 = $97K (time value ↓ + risk ↑)
Net 90 = $93K (time value ↓↓ + risk ↑↑)

Result? CRM shows true deal value, not just face value.

Budget vs Actual Reports?
(No more Excel gymnastics)
‍

3 Questions Every Business Asks Monthly:

• Are we over budget?
• Which departments?
• By how much?

Traditional way: Export → Excel → Pivot → Format → Share
(And repeat next month...)

‍

Smart way in Zoho Books:

• Variances calculate automatically
• Alerts for significant deviations
• Department heads get notified
• Historical trends show patterns

Best part? Reports refresh daily, not monthly.

Pro tip: We set thresholds by department
Marketing: 10% variance → Alert
Operations: 5% variance → Alert
Admin: 15% variance → Alert

Because catching budget issues early saves money.

⏰ "Month-end is in 2 days, and I still haven't recognized revenue from our annual subscriptions..."‍

Sound familiar? Here's what typically happens:

‍

1. Dig through spreadsheets
2. Calculate each contract's monthly portion
3. Manually create journal entries
4. Hope there are no mistakes
5. Repeat next month

‍

Reality check: A $120K annual contract = 12 manual journal entries of $10K each.
Multiply that by 50 contracts = 600 manual entries per year!

We automated this entire process in Zoho Books for a client who now:

• Spends 0 time on monthly recognition
• Has error-free entries
• Never misses recognition dates
• Gets instant revenue reports

‍"Why hasn't Client X paid yet?"‍

Stop switching between Books & CRM to find out.

We built a smart A/R view that tells you:
Client X → 45 days overdue
Last Contact → Called Tuesday
Promise → "Paying next week"
History → Usually pays in 60 days
Risk Level → Medium ��

‍

One screen.

" A conversation with a CFO:"‍

CFO: "How do we get more clients to pay early?"
Me: "What if early payments unlocked better pricing?"
CFO: "Manually tracking that would be..."
Me: "Automatic. Watch this."

We built this in Zoho:

Client pays early in Books →
• CRM flags account for special pricing
• Sales team gets Cliq notification
• Payment pattern tracked automatically
• Future quotes adjust pricing

Example:
Always pays 10 days early = 2% off next quote
Consistently early 6 months = Premium tier pricing

One client saw 40% increase in early payments after implementing this.

Because good payment behavior deserves rewards.

• Your request: Mar 10-15
Result: 5 days with reduced support coverage

"Help! Our department heads keep exceeding budgets because they can't track spending in real-time" - this was a common complaint from one of our clients.

Here's what we did:
We set up custom workflows in Zoho Books that automatically check department budgets vs. actuals before any PO approval.


Now their approval process looks like this:
1. PO created
2. System auto-checks remaining budget
3. If within limits ✅ → normal approval flow
4. If exceeding ⚠️ → additional approval required

Simple but effective! Their finance team loves having this extra control without adding manual work.

"Transaction rules shouldn't just categorize. They should think.

‍

We built rules that do both:
‍
• "office supplies" under $100 → Auto-approve
• Amazon orders over $500 → Manager review
• Description has "software" → IT approval
• Vendor contains "advertising" → Marketing review

Bonus: Rules suggest categories based on past 6 months:
• Similar descriptions
• Matching amounts
• Common vendors

One client reduced manual reviews by 70%.
Their finance team's response? "Finally!"

(A 30-second story)

‍

Sales: "Great news! $50K deal!"
Finance: "At what margin?"
Sales: "..."

We fixed this:

High-value quote created →
System auto-checks:
• Cost basis in Books
• Historical pricing
• Approved margins

Below target margin?
→ Quote needs finance approval
→ Reason required
→ Margin impact shown

Above target?
→ Quote flows normally
→ Auto-approval kicks in
→ Deal moves forward

Simple protection.
Big impact.

Because enthusiasm shouldn't override profitability.

‍When @john.sales goes on leave:

• 15 active leads
• 3 pending quotes
• 8 follow-ups scheduled

Without automation:
Leads sit untouched
Opportunities go cold
Deals might slip

With our Zoho workflow:
1. People marks vacation
2. CRM gets notified
3. Leads auto-reassign
4. Tasks with due dates within the period where john is on leave redistributes
5. Clients stay covered

Real example:
Team lead on 2-week vacation
→ 20 leads auto-assigned
→ 5 quotes still closed
→ 0 opportunities missed

Because sales shouldn't pause for PTO.

The Real Cost of "Just a Quick Meeting"
‍

10 people.
1 hour meeting.
Simple math?
Not quite.

We built a smart calculator that shows:

Meeting: Product Review
Attendees: 10
Duration: 1 hour
→ Cost: $850
→ Project Impact: 8 hours delayed
→ Resource shift: 3 teams affected

Same meeting, next time:
• 6 essential attendees identified
• 30-min focused agenda
• Clear action items
→ Cost: $275
→ Impact: Minimal
→ ROI: Positive

Because sometimes the most expensive words are "let's schedule a meeting."
