Managing the Revenue Cycle

Revenue Management

Manage more effectively with new insights into critical financial information

Revenue management is a fully integrated and automated process for managing the financial transactions associated with your customer relationships. Softrax revenue management solutions improve the accuracy, availability, and usability of your key financial information by eliminating spreadsheets and integrating the flow of revenue data across all your accounting processes.

Softrax solutions are based on a fundamental architectural advantage that enables automation to be applied independently to billing and revenue recognition in a coordinated way. As a result, very complex revenue models and the demands they place on your billing, recognition, allocation, scheduling, and compliance activities can be effectively automated in one system.

With Softrax you can easily control business models that create headaches for other systems, especially when it comes to managing deferred revenue, contract renewals, and issuing complex invoices. Because Softrax stores all revenue related information, your audit and analysis processes are always based on high integrity revenue data. By implementing Softrax you get a robust financial infrastructure that supports growth and innovation as you scale your business.
