Allow Custom Deal Properties that are formatted as currency to be multi-currency
It would be very useful if HubSpot automatically assigns the Deal's currency to the Custom Deal Property formatted as currency or if at least it gives the option to select the currency you want to use on the custom property, as of right now the amount that is set on the custom property is the one chosen on the Account Default settings.
I'd like to thank you all for taking the time to submit, vote and comment on this Idea. My name is Shay, and I’m the Product Manager for HubSpot’s Properties.
I'm happy to announce that this feature is now In Beta!!! Admins now have the option to set the currency for custom deal currency properties to match the currency of the record.
If you would d like to participate in this Beta, reach out to your point of contact at HubSpot and let them know that you would like access to the "Create custom deal currency property that uses record currency" which they can sign you up for through our internal Customer Success tool.
We’ll be sure to update you here and on our Product Updates blog as soon as this feature is fully Delivered.
Hi Richard, HubSpot let you add multiple currencies in your HubSpot instance and you can set one as default currency. For other currencies, you can set the exchange (conersion) rate and while you create the deal in other currency it will automatically convert that into default one and will show you the total deal pipeline. You can read more about it here:
Also, HubSpot provides a default field "Amount in company currency" in deal properties which is a calculation field which can also set according to some formulas.
I hope this will help. If yes, please upvote so other users can also be benefited with this.
Thanks for that and I am well aware of the mulit currency option which indeed is set up in our instance of HS
However my problem is where I have added a custom property of type currency where a second value in the local currency is added to the deal. For example sold deal for implementation at $100 and also service in second year for $45 - this second sales value is set as a custom property type currency in the deal but does not translate to the local currency selected in the deal
Indeed, this would be very helpful. We use quite a few custom deal properties (number | currency) for reporting and not being able to use different currencies is affecting our reporting. Thanks!
I've got the same problem with the secondary fields created.
There is not a problem with the deal/company currency when just using the OOB Amount field but if you pretend to use that deal/company currency for a bespoke field it doesn't work.
This makes so much sense! We are automating certain custom deal properties (and company properties) to our Accounting / invoicing system and this is a true challenge at the moment.
Surely more companies are not selling in only 1 currency, this would make a lot of sense to develop!
This is one of the top 10 (maybe top 5) enterprise flaws in HubSpot. Even adding a deal currency type default would be ideal.
Then on reporting I should be able to see a column option for number (currency) in deal currency and/or selected currency (ie a drop down from my currencies).
Lastly, can you please, please, please add the ability to update currency with an API call. It's ridiculous that you have to go into an interface in admin settings to change it. And when you use 20 currencies like we do, it's not even practical.
Our process right now for number fields that need currency conversion to show diff currencies.. We use Zapier to run a series of API calls to convert amts to various currencies and then update the deal records - EVERYTIME THEY ARE UPDATED. That means thousands of API calls a day for no reason and two third party subscriptions (Zapier and Curr Converter) in the mix. It's so incredibly dumb and a waste of resources. We also have 3 fields (revenue, cost, net) for each currency so we can report on it. Think about that for a second!!!
Hubspot - stop building chat bots and fix the system. 🙂
Since there's a feature for an account to have multiple currencies, the option to select a currency should be given when inputting a value into a custom amount property with currency formatting too!
If I create a deal 'amount' using revenue I can currently change the currency. If however I then create another deal property using currency then It only uses the default company currency and this is not right. All deal financial properties should follow the same current selected for 'amount'
This is a really good idea and I am surprised it has so few votes.
There are many use cases where we might want to have a custom currency property in local currency.
The best workaround we have is to use 2 separate properties. One a Number and the other a Dropdown containing possible currencies. This is not possible to report on within HS but works well for exported data but does limit the insights available.
