I create a custom quote template where I modified only the line_items.module to sort the products in a specific way.
When I select this template in the quote creation process I receive this alert message:
“This template is missing the following new features:
List of Future Payments on published quotes
Please update your template or ask your admin for help.”
But if I continue the steps and publish the quote the “future payments” table, for the products with this characteristic, is correctly available.
Maybe the alert is reading a sort of metadata somewhere despite the code that generate the future payments is well implemented?
Attached a screenshot of the future payments table in the published quote.
Hi @GBreccia and all my Best Wishes for 2024!!!
Thank you for reaching out to the Community!
While investigating this for you, I could see that the “List of Future Payments” module refers to the “Future charges” section that appears on quotes that have recurring or future-dated payments.
It seems that the payment schedule does not work if you have recurring payments in the line items. If that’s the case, I’d recommend removing them and the quote template should then be working.
I hope that it helps! Also, if anybody else has anything to add and/or share, please feel free to join in the conversation
Have a wonderful day!

Thank you for explaining. I understand that when I set up recurring payments for some items, I can’t choose the “payment schedule” option.
However, I’m facing a different issue.
Whenever I select my custom, coded template, I get a warning saying, “This template is missing the following new features: List of Future Payments on published quotes. Please update your template or ask your admin for help.”
But regardless of whether the items have future charges or the quote has a payment schedule, the published quote seems correct.
So, I’m wondering if the alert is just a bug that’s misinterpreting my new coded quote template.
Hi @GBreccia, I hope that you are well!
Sorry for the late reply and thanks for the additional information!
I’d like to invite a couple of subject matter experts to this conversation: Hi @HubDoPete, @Jnix284 and @ChristinaKay have you already seen this behavior? Do you have suggestions to help @GBreccia, please?
If you are still seeing this behavior, I would recommend connecting with HubSpot Technical Support, as Support is included in your subscription and they will be able to provide real-time assistance for this matter, including hopping on a screenshare if necessary.

Hi @GBreccia I believe that the error is flagging you that the code required for the list of future payments is incomplete/incorrect.
I would advise having whoever coded the template review it for necessary updates.
It is a bit strange that you can see the future payments section despite the warning, it could be a false trigger, again I think it would be best to have the developer review the documentation just to be sure.
What happens if you complete a quote - are there additional errors related to future payments? or can you successfully publish a quote that includes future payments?
I am a developer and have also come across the “future payments” message. I do not see any errors when using the module in my own templates. The module works as expected. As far as I can tell, the error message is a false positive.
