For all line items, I want to force a custom start date to be added to each line. Is there a way to remove the other options and make a custom start date required?

Hi @PLachance8,

This is unfortunately not possible at this stage. However, other users have requested this before: [https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/Mandatory-fields-in-line-items/idi-p/727900](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/Mandatory-fields-in-line-items/idi-p/727900)

These requests submitted to the HubSpot Ideas section of the community are reviewed by the HubSpot product team, based on their popularity and the assumed demand. I’d recommend commenting and upvoting.
