In HubSpot Quotes, accurate tax handling at the line item level is essential—especially when GST needs to be applied selectively. A common use case is applying GST only when a custom dropdown field is marked as "Yes".
With HubL, HubSpot’s templating language, this can be handled directly within the quote template. No external scripts, no workarounds—just smart logic embedded in your layout.
Objective
Show the total price including tax (GST) for each line item only when a custom property like apply_gst equals "Yes".
Implementation
Inside the property_name_amount_span_1 span of your quote template, use the following logic:
{ % set price = property_value|float % }
{ % set tax = line_item.hs_tax_amount|default(0)|float % }
{ % set apply_gst = line_item.properties.apply_gst % }
{ % set total = apply_gst == "Yes" ? price + tax : price % }
{ { total|format_currency_value(locale=locale, currency=currency, maxDecimalDigits=max_decimal_digits)|sanitize_html } }
This snippet does the following:
-
Reads the base price from the line item
-
Adds the tax amount only if the
apply_gstproperty is set to "Yes" -
Outputs the final value formatted with currency rules
Example Use Case
Suppose your quote includes:
-
Custom Website Build (apply_gst: Yes)
