Phases vs Groups default
I almost exclusively use Groups and would like that to be my default view instead of phases. Is there a way to do this with a template or automation?
Bulk add products to Deals
Can pipedrive add a feature that allows users to add products to deals in bulk edit mode? Currently, our only option for adding products to a group of deals is to update each individual record. Seems like a fairly easy step to add this ability. User selects deals that they would like to edit (add products to) In the "Bulk…

Having multiple versions of 1 "product" within one deal
Hello all! I hope you can help me with this. We produce and set gravestones. In many offers we create, I give our client 2 or more options. A single option contains multiple products which I will group. Some product groups are going to be present in all of the options while 1 or 2 may vary. Do you have a best practice as…

Filtering to show deals that recently moved from Lost to Open
I can't find a way to filter deals that were switched from Lost to Open within the last month. I can find status changes, but there is no option to show stage changes.

Is there a way to automatically associate activities with the contact's organization?
Anytime a new activity is created from Calendar Sync it links the contact but not the Organization or Deal. Is there a way to automate this so that it completes those fields automatically? My ideal automation would be: Trigger: Activity is created or updated AND Contact is not Empty Linked Organization is Empty AND/OR…

Activity Visibility Problems
We have notes and pictures that we enter into most of the activities we create, and it seems like a lot of our pictures are to large to be hidden in the notes. They're too small to use the "minimize" arrows in the top, meaning they can't be hidden, but large enough that they take up a lot of space in lead history. Is there…
How do I create visibility of open and won deal in my pipeline?
I have a rather different business where there are multiple steps to winning a deal. Basically, a deal can be won at stage 4, and then over the course of the next 3 stages, it is possible to lose the deal still and or win a much bigger deal on that 7th stage. I want to show the deal as won after the 4th stage, but I want…

Account Management After Deal Won
Hello All, I'm curious if there is an optimal method for managing customers' "accounts" after a deal has been won. We are a company that sells cosmetics B2C and also B2B. We primarily use Pipedrive for managing our B2B sales, but once we make the first sale, we struggle to find an optimal way to stay on top of their…

Lead Assignments by Region or Country
Hi there! I have sales teams in different countries. How are you assigning Deal owner and pipeline for the UK vs. US? They'd be an English form, but a different owner. Normally I would do that using a country pull down menu, but the address field is all merged and doesn't have a country field.
Share activity notes in slack
We share meeting results in our company both in Pipedrive and in slack. Since we don't want to duplicate content, we write meeting notes in Pipedrive and then share them in Slack in a specific channel. Currently, there is no option to just share a link to an activity which is why we started to take screenshots of the…
Setting up recurring payments
Hi, Would love to streamline how I collect payments once a deal closes. I have pipedrive, use qwilr for proposals and my process is really clunky. I’m torn between stripe & gocardless for single / recurring payments. I want to be able to have someone accept a proposal on a call, send them the deposit payment link straight…

Hey there, I was already in contact with customer support, maybe one of you has a workaround for this issue (if this is not the right category, I'm sorry): I am currently in contact with a management regarding different Podcasts. I created a new contact in Pipedrive for each Podcast. However, I only have one email address…
Completed Activity filtering on Deals
Having a filter on each deal to filter completed activities by type for that specific deal. This would help to further streamline account review / lookup time. I.e. reviewing particular milestone activities on account vs. scrolling through 3+ months of activities on the account
Email Template Flaw / Shortcoming
There are many use cases to send an email from inside a specific record (person or deal) to another party (vendor, referral partner, outside partner). These would include status updates, outside vendor orders needed to process a deal won, or a simple thank you's to others attached to the deal. These emailed orders and…

Any chance we get a Tax exclusive option for deals anytime soon?
I'm aware this has been asked before. There even seems to have been a "coming soon" marker in the UI at some point two years ago, but the option isn't available to me. So I'm bringing this up again. Any chance we get this soon? Otherwise the whole Deal pricing thing doesn't really work for us in a B2B context... Past…
Is it possible for an automation to create an activity in a variable number of days based on history
I wanted to make an automation that schedules a call if I made a call and it was not answered. However, I want to make it variable so that if I had called the contact twice already in the last week then the activity is scheduled for a week from today but if I hadn't called the contact at all this week then the activity is…
