Subscription & Usage Billing in ERP: ASC 606 Without the Headaches Meta

Why Recurring Revenue Breaks Legacy ERP

Subscriptions, ramps, and usage blur the line between order, delivery, and revenue. ERP needs tight integration between contracts, billing, and rev rec to avoid spreadsheets and surprises.

Architecting Contracts to Cash

Model performance obligations, standalone selling price, and variable consideration at line level. Generate invoices on schedules or usage feeds. Post to contract assets/liabilities and recognize revenue automatically with change-order support.

Usage Mediation & Controls

Ingest usage from metering, normalize units, handle caps/rollovers, and provide customer-facing summaries. Reconcile billed vs. used and surface anomalies before close.

Audit-Ready Evidence

Link revenue schedules to contracts and usage files with immutable IDs. Store SSP policies and estimates. Audits become a walkthrough, not an excavation.
