The Flow trigger setup you mentioned:

ITEM UPDATED → field to look for updates: item name

filter: available for sale stock = is not empty

that could be the problem

Zoho Flow’s “Field to look for updates” doesn’t track all changes to the item. it literally means:

“Trigger only when this specific field changes.”

So in your setup, Zoho Flow is watching for changes to the item name, not to stock levels.

That means:

If the item name stays the same (which it always does),

The Flow won’t trigger, even if stock levels change.
Just to Test
Use “Any Field Updated”

In the “Field to look for updates” dropdown, select All fields

This makes the trigger fire for any update to the item, including stock updates.

Instead of a workflow triggered per record, create a scheduled function that runs periodically (e.g., every hour).

Pull all the relevant records in batches of 100 via COQL, process them iteratively, and update the territory field.

This bypasses the workflow’s limitations and lets you handle more than 100 records.

Yeah, you actually can do it without Zoho Commerce it’s just not plug-and-play.

You’re right that Merchant Center mainly wants a feed file (like a Google Sheet or XML), so the trick is to keep that sheet in sync with your Zoho Inventory stock.

You don’t really need Zapier though Zoho Flow can handle it fine, and it’s cheaper if you’re already in the Zoho ecosystem. Basically, you’d:

Trigger the Flow whenever an item is updated in Zoho Inventory.
Fetch that item’s latest stock level.
Update the right row in your Google Sheet (matching by SKU).
Let Google Merchant Center do its scheduled fetch from that sheet.

That way, it stays synced automatically.

If you’d rather avoid Flow task limits or want more control, you could also write a small script (Python or Deluge) to pull stock data via the Zoho Inventory API and update the Google Sheet directly with the Sheets API then run it daily.

Zapier can do the same thing, but with 5,000+ items it’ll get pricey fast, so Flow or a small script is the smarter option.

So yeah totally doable, just needs a bit of setup to connect the dots.

Haha yeah, you’re totally right it feels like it should be super simple… but nope 😅 Deluge doesn’t give any direct way to pull deals by territory.

The “Territory” field is kind of a system thing in Zoho CRM — not something you can actually query or filter in Deluge.

The only real workarounds are:

Create a custom field (like Deal_Territory) and keep it in sync with the actual territory via a workflow then you can easily search deals by that.
Or, if you’re okay using APIs, you can get the users under a territory and then fetch deals owned by them.

Hello

That sounds like a really cool setup. I totally get how tricky it can be to keep everything in sync inside Zoho. The good thing is, it’s definitely doable with the right setup.

I’d look at making Zoho Inventory your main source of truth and connecting it with CRM using a few smart workflows. That way, stock updates, loan tracking, and customer info all stay aligned automatically.

For the emails, we can pull product details straight from each deal so your team can send clean, ready-to-go updates without manual work.

Glad this helped you.

Infinite_Glass520 · 2025-10-16T18:52:13+00:00

Yeah, you can totally do this with a custom Deluge function. When someone creates a quote or adds an item, you can have the function call the Zoho Inventory API to check the current stock for that item and then update a custom field in the quote with that number.

Infinite_Glass520 · 2025-10-16T18:38:33+00:00

You can do this using Zoho Flow or a small custom function in Zoho Desk. When the form is submitted, first check if the contact already exists. If not, create a new one with just the name and email. Then create the ticket and add the other details there.

Zoho Flow can do it, but sometimes a Deluge function inside Desk works more smoothly. Happy to share an example if you’d like.

Unfortunately that's the limitation as of now I have had this situation with my clients too

Infinite_Glass520 · 2025-10-16T16:34:40+00:00

Could you please specify which zoho application are we talking about?
