Invoice modifications issues
Prior to using ScaleXP, revenue recognition was a complex and time-consuming process, taking at least 2 days per month. Each invoice included multiple lines with different terms, from a few weeks to 3 years. Shorter invoices could cross a month end, say for a 3-week period from 15 January to 10 February. Approximately 15% of the invoices covered a year or longer. The scenarios were endless.
To calculate revenue recognition, every line on every invoice needed to be exported to a spreadsheet, with the term manually calculated and allocated by month.
Invoice modifications and credit notes were particularly painful, as tracking invoices which had been modified was not a simple task.
The main goal of moving to ScaleXP was to improve efficiency and free up accountants to focus on analysis and reporting.
“We wanted a system that would allocate revenue by day, with full traceability. We needed all invoice modifications and credit notes to be detected automatically. We also wanted to enable auditors to log in on their own to confirm the allocation.”
Why ScaleXP is the best solution
By using ScaleXP, Navarro Properties has saved two days each month. Time has shifted from updating tedious spreadsheets to focusing on business priorities.
