Currently it is possible to add a Product (from the Product Library) to a Deal, and modify its name.   It's not possible to restrict Name changes (as you can for other Properties) based on Profile or user. This means that Reports on Line Items in a Quote or sold may not be entirely accurate, since the Line Item names may not match if a user inadvertently makes a change. Whilst we can train users not to do that - preventions is better than cure 🤒   My client requires more control over who can make certain changes to the properties on a Line Item when being added to a Deal, but specifically the Name. Would love to see further functionality here to make Products/Line Items more robust please.   Please get in touch, HubSpot Product Manager, if you would like more details and use cases. Thanks in advance! ...read more

Hi team, Raising this on behalf of customers who can benefit from their custom quote properties being included amid their quote-to-invoice conversions. Thanks for your work and consideration towards this UI enhancement! ...read more

Hi Hubspot, Please let us create Invoices based on Quotes Payment Plans! We love the native Quoting Feature. It saves us hours of time, looks good, and helps my sales team be more focused on selling. We are looking to have the same on the invoicing side once the Quotes are signed. Due to our high Invoices, we always offer 50/50 split payments to help the cash flow of our clients. We always specify that in the payment plan, but Hubspot does not allow us to convert Quotes with Split payments to Invoices. This effectively prohibits us from using the Invoice Feature, as we either have to find a workaround (which is not an Option with Accounting) OR only offer 100% Payments, which also isn't an option. Thank you in advance. I'm sure this is something that's on a list, and I'd love to see it sooner rather than later! What do you guys think? ...read more

Currently, when you give space for digital signature on a quote, we often get the quote back signed manually, even when there is no space. The reason is 50% customers are digitally not ready to sign (I know it should be easy but you know...), and 50% is mistrust of German business people in digital signatures.   Anyways, currently it is not possible to mark the quote as signed manually. I had to take back the quote, get a new closing date (today or future), change from digital sign to space for signature, republish the quote and only then where able to mark as signed. Now, to me there are two options of making this process easier: A: Mark quote as signed no matter what choice was given for signing it. B: Allow to set up both in the quote, digital sign and manual sign, letting the customer decide what they prefer. For the politic of making the world more digital, I'd go for A. ...read more

It would be great if a quote creator and quote approver can leave comments for one another that are captured & saved in the deal (as a note, or otherwise), for quotes that are approved or asking for approval (to give the Approver context and to capture any conditional approvals given -- outside of any requests for changes, as changes may not be explicitly necessary).   For financial and audit purposes, we want a paper trail of all approvals that can be referenced/returned to later on. And ideally, these can be built straight into the quoting workflow, so that no one has to create / edit a note on the Deal before or after requesting approval or approving a quote (which will lead to people forgetting to do so).   Thank you! ...read more

We created a custom object for our partners. This way we can associate the partner object to all deals that have been referred by that specific partner. From this we can create reports on commission, and see a clear distinction between the deal and the partner.    Now, there is one big challenge. We also want to send out proposals to the partner when they become our official partner. However, it is not possible to associate quotes to custom objects, or contacts or companies, but only to deals. In our case, we do not want to create a deal for a partner. We also tried it with pandadoc, but unfortunately also with this integration it can only be connected to a deal.    The workaround would be to create a pipeline and deal stage for proposal and associate it to the custom object. However, this is not preferred.    ...read more

When registering a product, you can link that parent product with a child product. This way you will be able to restrict the commercial team from selling products with accessories that are not part of the main product.   Example: My product A and B can be purchased in the following versions: Product A + Accessory 1 + Accessory 2 Product B + Accessory 3+ Accessory 4 In this scenario, product A cannot be sold with Accessories from B, and vice versa ...read more
