Calculated properties for Products

Now that we can create custom properties for Products, can we enable calculated properties for Products? Without this basic feature, our products have quantitative properties that we have to manually calculate before adding to HubSpot. This creates room for error.

Hi everyone! My name is Hallie, and I'm an Associate Program Manager on our CXM team here at HubSpot. I've been in communication with our product team regarding this product, and they confirmed that while this is something on their radar, it's not on the roadmap over the next few quarters, so it's being marked as 'not currently planned' at this time.

 

With that said, the team would still find more use cases around this helpful to understand the value this feature could add in more depth. Please continue to leave any example use cases here in comments, and I'll share any updates here in the future around this if they arise. 😊

Hey folks - Ethan here, product manager for the Product Library. Apologies for the missed quarter of updates. I want to let you know that this feature is not on our roadmap for this quarter (Q3, 2022). We absolutely want to expand the customizability of the Product and Line Item objects but we're working on several other features this quarter and we needed to make some hard decisions about what to prioritize. 

 

As a sidenote, I'll be updating the top Ideas associated with Products and Line Items ~once per quarter going forward. I will include (1) whether or not a feature is on the roadmap for that quarter or not and (2) what our rollout plan for that feature is (e.g. will there be a beta or not). If you have feedback about additional information I could include in these updates, drop a note here. If I see a theme, I'll adjust my updates to address that.

 

I won't be doing this for every idea, but most ideas above 100 kudos will get this treatment. Previously, I had been trying to do it for ideas greater than 25 upvotes, but unfortunately the volume is too high to be practical.

Hey folks - my name is Ethan and I'm the product manager for the Products and Line Items team. I just wanted to let you know that this feature is not on our roadmap for this quarter, but it is something we'd like to build. While it's not something we're working on this quarter, it's quite possible we will work on this this year. We're working on several other features (e.g. allowing you to add Line Items to Deals via Workflows, expanding the number of supported decimals in Product/Line Item properties) this quarter and we needed to make some hard decisions about what to prioritize.

Been using HubSpot since 2017. We only offer 10-12 courses but every year we have to update thousands of Product Prices because we cannot add one field to our Quotes -> Weeks.


We just want to muliply our Product ["Course"] Price by

- number of students AND

- number of weeks

 

Waiting best part of a decade & its not like HubSpot is cheap software...

 

Insane.

@hhiggins  This feature really is a basic requirement for any business wanting to report accurately at product line level.  Other restrictions in line item functionality make it even more critical such as lack of workflows based on Product Lines that could be used to calculate line item properties.

 

Some of the use cases our business requires this for are:

- Managing cost credits from suppliers given that it is not possible to enter a negative cost against a product.  We have had to create a custom property for cost credits but can't then calculate the true margin value of the line item.  (Weirdly, negative costs can be added during an import but expecting salespeople to run an import for a single line item just because of this anomoly is overkill).

- Our business is measured on the "net new" value of sales so if we are renewing a line item with some uplift, we add a negative value to reflect the existing line item value.  We then can't calculate the net new amount at product line level.

- Calculating sales commission at product line level.  This currently has to be extracted to a spreadsheet.

 

I really hope this development can be moved along more quickly. Having moved over from Salesforce last year, these limitations in HubSpot would defintely discourage me from recommending anyone to move if their business includes any product complexity.

 

Thanks

Same here, I can make calculation everywhere in the CRM but not where the most calculations are done. 

Seems really strange to exclude them from this very basic need.
