Revenue recognition software FAQs

Revenue recognition is the accounting process that companies use to recognise revenue earned by a product or service provided.

Revenue recognition is important because it maintains the integrity of your company's financial reporting, by standardising how you record revenue so you can measure quarter-to-quarter performance consistently.

Beginning in 2018 for public companies and 2019 for private companies, the Financial Accounting Standards Board's (FASB) and International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) new ASC 606 and IFRS 15 revenue management guidelines will require companies to identify performance obligations in existing contracts, reallocate revenues each time a customer contract changes, and defer expense recognition to align with the contract's delivery. As a result of these changes, contract add-ons and renewals must be integrated into a single contract and will trigger reallocations across both past and future periods – causing continuous revisions to revenue allocations and expense alignment.

Ideally, there are six key features that SaaS accounting and revenue recognition software should include:

  • Be able to automate revenue allocation.
  • Connect billing and revenue recognition.
  • Use dual reporting for preparation and compliance.
  • Sync with upstream CRM and contract processes.
  • Provide visibility for all key stakeholders.
  • Speed adoption with true multi-tenant cloud architecture.

Luckily, your path to ASC 606 and IFRS 15 compliance starts with Sage Intacct. Sage Intacct natively supports the new rules, lightening the burden on your finance staff with automated revenue recognition built in.

Sage Intacct has a revenue recognition module built on Sage Intacct Core Financials. Revenue recognition software removes the complexity, time and frustration associated with revenue recognition.

The key benefits of our Revenue Recognition software include:

Many public and private companies still use spreadsheets for critical revenue management tasks, which takes up a lot of time and is error-prone. Revenue recognition gets complex fast, especially when you consider multiple entities, subscriptions, licences, services, etc., exposing a large number of issues from compliance, to audits, to proper forecasting. SaaS businesses must get revenue recognition right every time.

Sage Intacct translates your sophisticated revenue recognition requirements to simplified, streamlined workflows to get you the results your business requires.

  • Flexibly define specific recognition templates and rules
  • Automatically generate amortisation rules and apply these across individual contracts or order line items
  • Automatically recalculate deferred and recognised revenues when change is required
