Zoho Books - Zoho Cliq Integration

Zoho Cliq is a chat application that helps you connect and collaborate with your team at your workplace. It helps you to keep your team in the loop about your business activities.

Benefits of integrating Zoho Books with Zoho Cliq

  1. You can collaborate with Zoho Cliq users from within Zoho Books using the quick chat bar; and
  2. Receive important Zoho Books notifications in your preferred Cliq channel.

To better understand how this integration will help you, let us look at a scenario of a company using Zoho Books for accounting and Zoho Cliq for internal communication.

Scenario: The Sales team in the company contacts customers regarding sales but they don’t have access to the Zoho Books account. As a result, they don’t know whether the customer has viewed the quote, has accepted it or rejected etc. However, by integrating Zoho Books with Zoho Cliq, the Sales team will be able to receive notifications in the Sales team’s Zoho Cliq channel whenever a customer:

  • Views a quote
  • Comments on a quote
  • Accepts or rejects a quote
  • Views an invoice
  • Comments on an invoice, or
  • Makes payments towards invoices.

Similarly, the Finance team in a company will be using Zoho Books predominantly and they can collaborate with other Zoho Cliq users directly from Zoho Books using the Zoho Cliq chat bar.

  • An active channel in Zoho Cliq with the necessary team members who should receive the updates from Zoho Books.
