Yes, agreed, this is problematic and thanks for raising it.
Having come up against the issue too, I thought it through and understood why a discounted total doesn’t up-date as we would like it too and - instead - uses the subtotal…
The ‘total’ value may include local taxes and so, for deal value, it’s important to record the net rather than the gross value. So, it seems the best way to resolve this would be to have 3 values associated with the propsal;
1. Net Value (Currently ‘Subtotal’)
2. Net Value after discounts (Currently does not exist) - The deal value should then be calculated from this. If discounts are zero, the ‘net value after discounts’ will be the same as ‘net value’
3. Total Value (Currently ‘Total’) - This value would be the net value after discounts + any relevant taxes
I hope HubSpot make this amendment!
Thanks
