Automations, with AI Agent
Rules that run in your system by themselves
With AI Agent, describe a rule in the chat. Approve it with a yes in the chat, and it runs in your system by itself. Rules that message your customers you approve in CRM Connector.
A rule starts when a record is made or changes, when a date comes up such as a due date, when a record has not moved for a number of days, or when a tag is added or removed. It can set fields, move a stage, add a note or a task, tell your team, make a related record, give records to your users in turn or email your customer, and what else it can do depends on your system. It never deletes, and a payment always waits for your own click. Tell us what it should do, and we set it up for you.
When an invoice becomes overdue, add a task to follow up with the customer.
- When
- An invoice becomes overdue
- Only if

Good to know
How the Zoho Books agent behaves
One package, one organisation
One package covers one Zoho Books organisation. Every other organisation needs its own package.
Connects with Zoho's own sign in
You sign in to Zoho Books from CRM Connector. Your data centre is picked up by itself.
It never records a payment
Payments stay readable and are never made by the assistant or an automation. Nothing is ever deleted either.
Tasks always have an owner
Zoho Books keeps no due date on a task nobody owns, so a task without a named user goes to the person who connected Zoho Books.
An ended trial reads only
When the Zoho Books trial or plan of an organisation has ended, Zoho Books lets the assistant read but refuses every change.
Not in the Zoho Books agent
Profit and loss, the balance sheet and cash flow, because Zoho Books offers apps no such reports. Tell us if you need something else.
Risky changes need your click
A message to your customers, a payment or a setup change waits for your own click on a CRM Connector page. Stage moves are done in the chat after your yes.
Never a delete, never a payment
In Zoho Books the assistant never deletes a record and never records a payment, whatever you ask it.
