  6. Once an invoice is created in the MF Cloud portal, the MF見積ID will be updated.

  7. If the user tries to create an invoice again, a pop-up message will be displayed : "Already Created (見積書はすでにMFクラウド請求書ポータルにプッシュされています)". 

Tax Validation Process during Quotes push:

The tax for each quoted item will be validated.

  • If a product is not associated with any tax slab, you must select at least a 0% tax value for that product.

  • Multiple tax associations for products are not permitted in the MF Cloud Invoice application.

  • Tax percentages of Zoho CRM products must match with the tax lists defined in the MF Cloud Invoice portal. [Refer notes section]

If any of these conditions are not met, the process of pushing quotes will be halted, and an error message will appear in the widget.

When all product taxes are correctly mapped with the MF Cloud Tax list, a green tick symbol will appear in the corresponding product row.
