1. Aggregate emails under Accounts module

Creator Scripts Aggregate Emails

When it comes to data aggregation there is not such thing as too much of it. Zoho CRM aggregates your emails under Leads or Contacts, but not under Accounts.

If you conduct B2B operations then emails under Contacts makes little to no sense at all. You can actually hack your way through having emails as a related list under Accounts.

In order for this process to work we need 3 key components working at the same time;


1. Zoho Creator account synced to your Zoho CRM platform.

2. Enterprise edition on your Zoho CRM plan.

3. And ability to forward emails from your current email hosting provider. i.e. Outlook, Gmail, etc ( most do )

2. Adding Barcodes to Sales Orders, Invoices or Product Items.

Creator Scripts Barcode API

If your business is starting to grow and you process hundreds if not thousands of transactions per day scanning orders, invoices or inventory items becomes a must have.


The barcode API uses a very simple RESTful interface. Each barcode can be generated by creating the proper URL. Currently, the API supports the following barcode types:Code 39 (c39)Code 128a (c128a)Code 128b (c128b)Code 128c (c128c)4 of 5 Interleaved (i2of5)


You can find all API details in the following url http://www.barcodes4.me/apidocumentation but if you need help implementing it into your Zoho CRM account do not hesitate to contact us.
