We are looking for a way to track and manage the association between mutliple tickets. We have a use case for builing out a master ticket pipeline, with several sub tickets (under a different ticket pipeline) that make up the components of the master ticket. Reason for this set up is that we need to track the individual progress of each sub ticket (which represents a particular servive and is managed by a different team). So the master ticket will represent the overall soltuion sold, and will comprise of individual (sub) tickets. Reason we can't use one ticket for this is because it service is managed by a different department and may be delivered over a different time scale to the other services. The master ticket will only be completed once each sub ticket is then completed.
I know its not possible to associate multiple tickets to one another, but looking for the next best feasible solution).
One thought we had was to use a custom object to track and manage the relationship between master ticket and components (services) that make up the master ticket.
[Public Beta] Associate Records of the Same Object Type
Oct 18, 2023
What is it?
Same object associations give customers the ability to associate a CRM record to another record of the same object type e.g. a contact to a contact or a deal to a deal. These new associations are available for contacts, companies, deals, tickets and custom objects and can be leveraged across core HubSpot tools. Watch a short video on how this works.
Why does it matter?
Customers want HubSpot to reflect the reality of their business; this often includes a web of contacts or a collection of related companies. Without the ability to connect contacts to contacts, companies to companies and other objects to their same type, customers have been missing key relationships in HubSpot.
How does it work?
Users can now create associations between records of the same type for contacts, companies, deals, tickets and custom objects. On each record, you’ll see a new section in the right sidebar which reflects the type of record you’re on e.g. you’ll see a contacts section while on a contact record.
Customers with at least one Pro or Enterprise subscription can also create either a single label which is the same in both directions e.g. two contacts have the label colleague or a pair of labels representing two sides of a specific relationship e.g. student and teacher. When applying labels, you’re able to preview the application of the labels to ensure it’s correct before creating a new associations.
Same object associations can be leveraged in the following features:
Calculated properties
Custom Report Builder
Import
Index Pages
Lists
Records
Workflows
Who gets it?
All hubs and tiers can create associations between records of the same object type (with custom objects being available to enterprise tiers only). Labels are only available to Pro+ customers as well as in custom report builder and workflow support.

Have you heard of Associ8? It automates associations for you. I'm bringing this up because it updated to reflect HubSpot's new Same Object Associations feature.
There's some documentation going over how it works here if you'd like to take a look! And let me know if you have any questions!
Thank you for providing all the details for your goal! I would like to add our top experts to this conversation@Mike_Eastwood@MatthewShepherd@JustinPerkinsC Do you have any thoughts on this?
