Is is possible to have a contact’s activity was associated automatically to all the deals, not just the five most recent open deals?

Currently this is the standard: “If a call, one-to-one email, meeting, note, task, postal mail, LinkedIn, SMS, or WhatsApp message is first logged on a contact record, it will be automatically associated with the contact’s [primary company](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/crm-setup/associate-records#primary-company-information) and the five most recent associated open deals (i.e., deals that are not in [closed-won or closed-lost deal stages](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/crm-deals/set-up-and-customize-your-deal-pipelines-and-deal-stages#to-customize-your-deal-stages)).”

Hi team! It would be nice to have a general setting within each portal governing how activities associations should be set (e.g. from contact to associated deals, from deal to associated contacts)  
Thank you!

Very interested to apply auto-associations to ALL deals, not only OPENED ones.
