+1 for us. We use a custom object for our subscription contracts which are created from a closed won deal and can be upgraded / downgraded / winback with a deal associated to the custom object (subscription contract). At the moment we have the object for our contract but can’t see which products it haves. So it isn’t possible for us to use hubspot for automate the creation of a contract in our backend at the moment. We also think about creating an additional custom object for the products / lineitems, but then we have to create the objects from the lineitems of the deal and miss the great functionality of the lineitems object. I’m sad to see, that this request is not planed since the creation 4 years ago.

Custom Objects should have the option to be associated to Line Items and other Sales Objects.  
This could be essential for most of the users utilizing the custom objects for their organization’s needs. Hopefully this get an opprotunity to be looked at and improved on. This can really maximize the efficiency of using Custom Objects within HubSpot as a tool for aligning data within an organization’s operational functions.

This would be enormously powerful. As some have alluded, it was a little surprising to have the dual limitation of not having line item based workflows as well as associations. This drastically affects our ability to leverage line items in our post-sale processes. I think it might force us to create a custom object that essentially duplicates line items and then associate that with Purchase Orders (another custom object).

Hoping HubSpot makes this issue a priority. This is something Enterprise users should have at their disposal.

Very much needed! Alternatively having Record Types (like SFDC), AND the ability to rename standard objects (currently in Private Beta, yay!), would allow us to re-use the Deal record to model other transaction types: shipments, credits, returns, customer loans etc.

Oh \*\*bleep\*\* yes, we need this. Simple line items as a standard object so we can work with them in workflows and so on. In our particular use case, we want to create a custom object for a line item.

+1 - We’d like to use a custom object to track our software license contracts and streamline our revops. Would love to be able to use line items to keep these licenses up to date with service level, service offerings, usage/seats, etc.
