Organization Profiles

Estimated reading: 3 minutes 359 views

The Zoho Books organisation profile is the central record of your company’s identity: its name, address, logo, currency and tax details. It matters because everything you enter here appears automatically on your invoices, estimates, purchase orders and reports.

What the organisation profile stores

The profile holds your organisation name and logo, address details, primary contact email, base currency, time zone, date format, fiscal year and VAT or other tax registration details. Getting these right early keeps your financial documents consistent and accurate.

How to set up your organisation profile

  1. Log in to Zoho Books and click the gear icon (Settings) in the top right corner.
  2. Select Profile under Organization.
  3. Enter your Organization Name, and set the Display Name that should appear on invoices and reports.
  4. Add your business address. If you change it later, Zoho Books lets you choose whether to apply the update to future transactions only or to existing ones as well, then click Save Preference.
  5. Click Upload your logo to add your company branding. This appears on transaction PDFs and email notifications.

The logo also appears under the Branding section of Organization once uploaded.

  1. To change your primary contact email, go back to your organisation profile and click the gear icon next to the current Email field.
  1. You will be taken to Sender Email Preferences. Click + Add New Email and enter the new address.
  2. Verify the address using the confirmation link sent to that inbox, then mark it as your Primary Contact. Transactional emails will now be sent from this address by default.

Regional and tax details

  1. Set your Base Currency, Time Zone, Date Format and Fiscal Year to match your business.
  2. Where applicable, add your tax registration details, such as your UK VAT registration number and tax scheme.
  1. Once everything is filled in, click Save. You can come back and edit these details at any time as your business changes.

Tips

Keep your primary contact email verified and up to date, since it is used for account notifications as well as outgoing customer emails. Review your organisation profile whenever your address, branding or VAT status changes, not just when you first set up Zoho Books.

Frequently asked questions

Where do I edit the Organization Profile in Zoho Books?

Go to Settings (the gear icon, top right), then select Profile under Organization.

Who can update the Organization Profile?

Only Admin users, or a custom role with permission to update the organisation profile, can change these details.

Will changing my address affect past invoices?

No. When you update your address, Zoho Books asks whether to apply it to future transactions only or to existing ones as well, so past invoices are not changed unless you choose to.
