Creating a Contact Property with Multiple Fields

Smart CRM & Sales Hub CRM

Hi - I’m wondering if it is possible to achieve the below:

On a contacts record we have a multiple checkboxes property to record the various types of aircraft the contact has as part of their fleet. We scroll/search through the list of 249 options and tick each that is applicable.

We are wanting to now also include how many of each type they have in their fleet. Is there a way to do this, in my head the option would be another property with a list (of 249 options) with a free-field or number field to input, if it can’t be merged/included in the already created property.

So we would be wanting to record, eg:

Aircraft-x-type, 3

Aircraft-y-type, 1 … etc

Screen shot below to show the current property that we’re basically wanting to also record a numerical value against the checked options, if that makes sense!:

Hi @M_Kelly,

There is no property type which can accomplish this, unfortunately: Understand property field types in HubSpot

Whenever someone is thinking along those lines, that’s a sign that they need a custom object: Create and edit custom objects

Instead of trying to solve this through contact properties, you would create another entity in your CRM for ‘Fleet’. Each option in your dropdown would be it’s own fleet record. For example, your contact would be associated to a fleet record for AS355, and on that record you can populate a fleet property with a number (and of course any other property you might need).

Have a look and let me know if you have any follow-up questions!
