Milestone Billing

Milestone billing lets you bill customers as an event happens or using an ad-hoc date. At the same time, you can also recognize revenue based on ad-hoc dates or milestones that your finance department prescribes.

How it Works

Each bill line amount on a subscription corresponds to a billing milestone. The percentage of the charge amount is the bill line amount of the milestone. The interface date of the bill line is the completion date of the milestone.

A revenue line is created for the charge and the completion date of the milestone is the satisfaction date. Every satisfaction event corresponds to recognising a percentage of the allocated revenue.

The milestones are billed by identifying those that are complete, updating the completion date for them, and then interfacing the bill lines to Accounts Receivable.
