How it works
Partner quoting is configured on a deal embed in a portal experience. When you add a CRM entity list for deals, its Quotes & Line Items settings control whether partners can see and edit line items, create quotes, and publish them. With creation enabled, partners get a guided quote builder on the deal: their info, the end user, line items, and a signature or contacts step, then review. Quotes and line items are written as native HubSpot objects associated to the deal. Quote creation and line-item editing require the Product Hub module and a HubSpot connection. You can choose a quote template, lock the title to a template, require e-signatures, collect payment, and gate publishing behind approval.Prerequisites
- The Product Hub module enabled on your plan.
- A connected HubSpot account with quote write access.
- A portal experience with a deal collaboration embed.

Limits & gotchas
Troubleshooting
- Partners cannot create quotes - the Product Hub module is off, or HubSpot quote write access is missing.
- The quotes section is hidden - the deal is on Salesforce, where quote creation is not available.
- A quote will not publish - publishing is disabled for approval, or the quote is missing a required contact.
