Zoho Projects: Project Finances Now Fully In-House

Zoho Projects: Project Finances Now Fully In-House

Zoho Projects now keeps a project's finances and its work items on the same screen. From the project's Finance tab you can reach quotes, invoices, bills, sales orders, and purchase orders right alongside tasks, phases, issues, and time logs. You can create, send, approve, and convert finance transactions without leaving the project, thanks to an enhanced Zoho Finance Suite integration.

Zoho gives a construction example. A project manager running a commercial renovation, with vendors, subcontractors, and a client to deal with, can handle the whole finance side of the site from inside Zoho Projects.

What the upgraded Finance tab offers

Improvement What it means
More modules, less switchingPurchase orders, sales orders, and bills now live inside Zoho Projects, so you do not have to move back and forth between Zoho Books and Zoho Projects.
Quick approval and conversionApprove records from the details page, and convert invoices to quotes or sales orders and back again, to keep the finance flow moving.
Controlled finance accessManage who sees what from the integration page, granting access by module and by user profile.
Automated syncData flows automatically between Zoho Projects and Zoho Books, with no manual push.
Predefined and custom viewsTailored and predefined finance views make every transaction easier to find and act on.

The integration brings budget tracking and financial transaction logging together in one place, working alongside the rest of the project.

Availability: this announcement does not state plans, editions, or data centres. Zoho's documentation for the Finance Suite integration lists the Premium, Enterprise, and Ultimate plans of Zoho Projects together with at least the Professional edition of Zoho Books. Check your own portal before promising it to a client.
