Please help to do the coding for me.
Our main requirement is how to create the Stock Issued Docket, The customers require us to put the Price of one Product, but it’s changeable. We have to create a new list in Product, but the problem is that we cannot make Stock Issued Docket because of price difference.
Hope you can understand what I mean.

To my understanding, you are looking for Products Stock history ie., suppose there are 3 products with different prices in the stock and if there is a change in price of few products, You need to maintain those products with the same old price in the stock. Also, there should be a new entry for the new price change. At a time, you need to see the same product with old and new price in the stock.
If so, then it is not possible in Zoho CRM. As a workaround, you can maintain these stocks in your database ie., whenever a price change happen, you can identify that using the API and put a new entry in the database. In Zoho CRM, there will be only one product with one price in the stock. But in your database, there will be more that one entry for the same product. Hope this satisfy your needs.
Please let us know.

How do I edit the fields? Currently I can select fields to include in each of the fields list but the selections within the fields are fixed to the values that are not really relevant to this business.
For example, editing the values for Industry to exclude the industries that we dont service and include parts of our industry that we do differentiate. Also, I am not the CEO so how do I edit that field to put in my company role?
Cheers
Mark
If I am not mistaken, you would like to change the field values of the pick list fields. You can do so by editing the field. please refer the following link for more details: https://zohocrm.wiki.zoho.com/Zoho-CRM-Custom-Fields.html#Add_Pick_list_Values
