When creating a deal it would be good if there could be a 4 or 5 digit number automatically associated with the deal, (so the Hubspot system automatically associates it in a consecutive order) so that the deal can easily be referenced on all files etc of the deal, and it is easy to find in future.
The issue we face is that we may have the same company, with the same contact, with very similar deals running at the same time (for different projects etc) so these are easily confused.
Though each deal is automatically associated with a Deal ID (which appears in the URL), it is unsearchable, and it is an 8 digit number which is not so user friendly. It would be good to have a field with an auto number calculator or something similar, which is searchable, and auto added to each deal when it is created in a consecutive sequence.
Could Hubspot add an 'auto-number-generator' as an option for deal creations?
