Enhancements: Control editing access for specific deal stages

Super admins can now give editing access to deals in a "locked" stage to select users and teams.

This enhancement is designed to offer more flexibility and granularity in setting guardrails on your sales pipelines

Sales + Service Hub

Implied opens for Sales and Service emails

If a sent email receives a click or reply, it implies the email was opened. Now, if an email has 0 opens but receives a click or reply, HubSpot will count 1 open event. This will only be done for going from 0 opens to 1 to avoid artificially inflating the analytics. You may notice an uptick in open rates going forward due to this change.

Commerce Hub

Commerce in the Global top-level navigation

HubSpot's Commerce Hub contains easy-to-use tools to help your business bill customers and collect revenue. These tools are now under a new top-level global navigation entry. These tools were earlier under the Sales top-level global navigation entry. However, they have now been relocated to a standalone Commerce navigation entry since they meet a distinct set of needs tied to payments and billing.

 

*available to all Hubs and Tiers

 

Pre-Enrollment Invoices

Previously, users could not create invoices without first enrolling in Commerce Hub and enabling HubSpot payments. We are removing that requirement, so users can now finalize, send, and manually record payments on invoices without being enrolled. This way, users can start using invoices and getting value sooner. They can choose to set up Payments later in order to speed up with payments collection process.

 

*available to all Commerce Hub customers

 

Payment Schedules on Quotes

Commerce Hub users can now have Invoices automatically created for the payment schedules on their Quotes. With Payment Schedules, companies can now de-risk their business and ensure more stable cashflow for project based work.

Japanese Yen (¥JPY) support for Commerce Hub

Subscription Timeline Card

Commerce Hub customers can now see more detail about the timeline of each subscription. Customers can clearly understand what has been paid and what will be paid in the future. This matters because subscriptions can have a fixed number of billing periods or can auto-renew until canceled. When a business is using subscriptions to manage their recurring billing, it's important for the entire front office to have a clear understanding of each subscription and when it will bill next.

CRM Email Permissions

A new permission is being added which can limit the ability for users to view logged emails and emails from connected inboxes. CRM emails are assigned to the primary sender or receiver of the email. The permission levels can then be set to owned, team, or all.

  • Team means only emails assigned to that user or to users on teams they are a part of.
  • All means they can see all logged emails.

Auto-mapping now available in the HubSpot App for Zoom Meetings

This new feature will allow you to have all meeting participants mapped automatically when the relevant contact record is available in HubSpot.  Previously, the meeting host would need to manually map each meeting participant to the relevant contact record in HubSpot to make sure all notes and activities during a meeting are synced to the correct records in HubSpot - this can take a lot of time and effort, which takes away from quality engagement during your meeting. Now, we have automated this process, so the host can stay fully engaged in their meeting, and be assured that all the notes and activities are accurately synced to the correct records in HubSpot.

 

*available to all HubSpot users with the relevant Zoom plan.
