Revenue recognition is one of those processes that looks simple in a spreadsheet until it isn’t. A few contracts, a couple of schedules, maybe a subscription change, and suddenly the formulas start breaking, the reconciliations don’t tie out, and your team is spending hours fixing errors. Spreadsheets might work in the very beginning, but they’re not built for the complexity of today’s revenue models.
Sage Intacct takes revenue recognition out of the spreadsheet and into a system that was designed for it. Whether your needs are simple or complex, Intacct automates the process so you can stay compliant, accurate, and confident.
Start simple with automation
If your revenue recognition process is straightforward, Sage Intacct still makes a big difference. Everyday tasks like creating straight line schedules, managing deferred revenue, tying recognition to invoices, and reporting on recognized versus deferred balances are all handled automatically in the system.
This short video walks through the basics, showing how to enter invoices, create schedules, book revenue, set up templates, and choose between automatic or manual posting. All directly in Sage Intacct.
Scale up when contracts get complex
Of course, revenue recognition rarely stays simple. Subscription billing, contract changes, and multiple performance obligations can quickly add layers of complexity. Manual spreadsheets simply can’t keep up, and the risk of errors (and compliance issues) grows.
With Sage Intacct, you can manage multi element arrangements, automatically adjust schedules when contracts change, handle recognition across milestones or percentages complete, and stay compliant with ASC 606 and IFRS 15.
This video demonstrates how Sage Intacct manages subscription billing, covering contracts, revenue recognition, and reporting on transaction history so you always know where you stand.
